Jacobabad, Pakistan was named the world's hottest city in May after extreme heat (124°F).
Now, it's flooded after extreme monsoon rains.
A teacher says many of her students are homeless and will miss months of school: "People had heatstroke, now people have lost their homes."

Floods in Pakistan killed at least 1,191 people, including 380 children — one woman saw her grandchild swept away as she slept.
Rains are up to 28x above average.
Villages are still swamped. Officials say Pakistan is a "fully soaked sponge" with nowhere for water to go.

Coming back home from a FANTASTIC two-day residential with @KnowledgeEquity. The central learnings from these days are the relevance of collaboration, the (non-tokenistic) role of lived experience, fabulous colleagues in the migration/refugee sector and the incredible views.

Powerful provocation @toddles23 @KnowledgeEquity 🤯"Over 60% of those who've died of COVID were legally identifiable as disabled people. Yet if you look at the media, it’s as though those with underlying health conditions are somehow dispensable" #WithUs #LivedExperience
