New Project Implementation: Diversity Tour to Worship Places in Pakistan
Location: Khairpur, Pakistan
Mr. Ahmad Shah as a Consultant for the Youth Development Foundation helped implement their new project in Khairpur, Karachi, Pakistan on the 26th of December 2018. The “Diversity Tour to Worship Places” provided opportunities to bridge the growing gaps among different faiths and communities through youth initiatives by pointing out the commonalities of all faiths and by fostering interfaith understanding and cooperation and spending time in safe spaces. The concept of physically going to different places of worship was a more tangible experience than sitting in a neutral conference room.
Mr. Ahmad Shah, Director of ISSUP Pakistan, has been invited to speak at a KEYNOTE Session of the U.S. Exchange Program by USEFP in the ‘2nd Young Leadership Program – YLP 2018’ happening on 28th, 29th and 30th December 2018 at the National Incubation Center in Karachi, Pakistan.
