About Eco Bahawalpur
Empowering communities for a greener, cleaner and more sustainable Bahawalpur.
Who we are
Eco Bahawalpur is an independent, youth-led environmental awareness platform dedicated to promoting sustainability, climate action, waste management, biodiversity conservation and environmental education across Bahawalpur. We work close to the ground, translating global environmental challenges into local action that ordinary families, students and neighbourhoods can take part in.
We are not tied to any political party or industry. Our focus is simple: help the people of Bahawalpur understand their own environment and give them practical ways to protect it.
Our vision
To make Bahawalpur a cleaner, greener, climate-resilient city where every citizen contributes to environmental protection.

Leadership
Meet the founder
Saira Qamar
Environmental Science graduate & climate advocate
I am a graduate in Environmental Science from The Islamia University of Bahawalpur (IUB) and a dedicated climate and environmental advocate. My academic background has strengthened my commitment to sustainability, climate action, environmental conservation and community engagement.
I founded Eco Bahawalpur with the vision of making environmental awareness accessible, practical and locally relevant. I believe environmental protection begins with informed individuals and empowered communities.
Through Eco Bahawalpur, I aim to educate people about local environmental challenges, promote sustainable lifestyles, encourage community participation, and highlight the important role of women and families in protecting our environment. My mission is to inspire positive environmental action that contributes to a cleaner, healthier and more sustainable Bahawalpur.

Community participation
Cleanups, plantation drives and awareness walks anyone can join.
Local environmental solutions
Answers built for South Punjab’s soil, water and climate, not copied from elsewhere.
