We agree with the stance! Do you? Shouldn’t the government of Pakistan facilitate students and hear out their concerns and issues?

Waiting to hear more from decision makers in academic and education concerns to help resolve the issue.
‘#SyllabusKamKaro‘ Throws Light On Mental Health
As the new academic session kicks into gear, our academic culture can become a lot more toxic than it seems – over-burdening students, not giving importance to their concerns and apprehensions and the lack of communication between faculty and students is something to worry about… Lekin in sab baaton par hamari suni kab jaygi?

Our Questions
Do you think the government should provide a platform for students and hear them out? Should academic stress and student’s health take first priority instead of pushing them towards a burdensome educational system? Are grades more important than a student’s skills and abilities? These are some of the questions that need to be addressed.
Perhaps we can also address online connectivity and budget-proof solutions to online learning as supporting solution to the future of learning in Pakistan. It would do well to keep up with modern technology where the youth needs it most!
Let’s start conversations and look towards solutions by initiating a two-way dialogue between educational institutions and those who visit them to carve a better future for themselves.
