Have resigned from EAC. Painful, deeply sad decision. Grateful for chance to aid analytical reasoning but not when such values compromised. Personally as a Muslim I can't justify this. May Allah forgive/guide me&us all.Ever ready to help.Pakistan Paindabad

For those looking for silver lining on EAC issue: Here is a start: 1. The EAC now has openings for Pakistani women economists-urge Govt to invite 2. One learns from failures & has to keep trying (I am not giving up on Pakistan - inshAllah finding other ways to help) 3.add more..?

My piece in Dawn w/ Ijaz Nabi on the EAC issue. Different decisions don't have to imply opposing values. To progress as a nation we cannot demonize one another. Have to figure out way to allow each other to contribute to our country. Can't afford not to.

Fully agree - inshallah hope can raise gender representation concern the first time we meet. We simply cannot make progress without engaging with and catalyzing half our country ... at all levels ...
It’s time that evidence-based policymaking becomes the cornerstone of institution building and structural reforms. While I am proud to see CERP represented so well, I wish we had more gender balance in Pakistan’s new Economic Advisory Council (EAC).

Given limited social mobility in the world sadly success is mostly just based on the luck of where you were born ... hopefully as we create better opportunities for everyone that will start changing

Always great to be able to exchange ideas ... truly believe that despite tough challenges (including current ones) Pakistan does have the right “ingredients” for growth and success - just need to enable them effectively

Great article on getting education reforms in Pakistan to fulfill their potential. Good news is we’re trying - just need to be more systematic about reform by using experimental & iterative approaches. After all we can’t promote learning if reform process isn’t learning itself...
