COTHM Karachi in collaboration with FPCCI Central Standing Committee on Culture & Tourism recently celebrated the World Mountain Day 2022. The event was attended by the members of the Committee and the students of COTHM.

Speaking on the occasion, FPCCI Central Standing Committee on Culture & Tourism Convenor Salman Javed said that this day is celebrated to create awareness among the masses about the importance of mountains in our lives, and how and why we should protect the eco-system of mountains. He further said that this year’s theme of World Mountain Day’ “Women move Mountains” is very relevant to Pakistan as the women of the communities living there play a very important role in the everyday life of those people. Every community has its own music and dance, folklores and traditions, cuisine and dresses, he added. This diverse eco-system, he said must be protected, which can become a major attraction for international and local tourists.

COTHM students also showed a very informative presentation on various mountain ranges of Pakistan.
