The study intended to assess how the public in the selected areas deal with effects of climate change through high-performance architecture prioritization in future. Like many other countries in the world and cities including Multan, Pakistan suffers from the consequences of climate change including heatwaves, flooding and energy crises. These woes are compounded by the fact that Multan has not developed optimized housing to any extent. A cross sectional survey was done in three city zones adopting open ended questionnaires using a purposive sample of 75 respondents. Analysis showed that there was heightened need for enhanced housing, however due to decline in economic cycles, socio-economic status, poor inter-relational frameworks, and lack of sound governance, people cant afford to opt for high-performance architecture. It was proposed that these challenges be met through proper planning and integration of public-private partnership.
