IAMKARACHI Brings The Dialogues To IBA
Karachi: On the Seventh of September, the JS auditorium at the IBA City Campus was packed to the rafters with eager students and dignitaries from Educational Institutes from all over Karachi to witness the launch of the IAK Karachi Dialogues and Awards.
The launch of the IAK Dialogues and the IAK Awards marked the much
awaited advent of two new programs for IAK that will continue for time to come.
This launch was held in one of the leading institutes in Karachi, the Institute
of Business Administration and was aimed at furthering IAKs agenda for bringing
peace to Karachi.
The Dialogues initiative is an effort by the IAK movement to alleviate
the misunderstandings the city harbours by promoting a better understanding of
different perspectives and the complex socio-cultural fabric of Karachi by
highlighting the importance of having dialogues. In a city that is affected by
tragedies on the regular, tragedies begotten of misunderstanding and
intolerance, this program is being used as a bridge between the different
groups of people in this city, and trying to do away with miscommunication.
The event was moderated by Media Stalwart Mr Ghazi Salahuddin who guided
his esteemed panellists Sibtain Naqvi, Wusatullah Khan, Baela Raza Jamil &
Rizwan Jaffar through the topic for the day. The event was rounded off by some
insightful questions from the students towards the end.
The second initiative launched was
the IAK Awards, designed to help people who have battled adversity to rise out
of those occasions and use social work to inspire others. The launch was a
platform to announce a call for nominations, leading to the process for
nominations and selection for potential candidates, with details available on
the website.
According to the IAK team, the
Awards initiative is not only a means to honour the Award winners but to give
them opportunities and platforms to grow and prosper in their personal and
professional lives.
The Event Management & PR of the event was handled by Mindmap Communications
