Understanding Pakistan’s multifaceted crisis
From 2 until 3.30pm UK time
At The Democracy Forum
For Pakistan, recent years have been marked by a series of debilitating and interconnected crises: political turbulence, economic instability, mounting security issues and regional discontent. What role has Pakistan’s influential military played in this scenario? Which institutional reforms to the hybrid political system could bring about positive change? How are Pakistan’s domestic and foreign policies impacting its economic development? And can civil society organisations be empowered to bring governments to account? To unravel the various factors underpinning Pakistan’s multifaceted crisis, please tune in to our live January 22nd debate, bringing your questions and comments for the expert panel.
