Executive Summary The project specifically targets early childhood education, enhanced enrolment and learning outcomes of out of school children, children at risk in school and transitions from early childhood education to primary and post primary education for especially girls and vulnerable groups in Pakistan. It is as much informed by the provincial education sector plans as it is by the national/global commitments towards MDGs/EFA and current debates to finalize the post 2015 development agenda, goals and targets. On the one hand, the scope of the project is intensively focused on Sindh, Balochistan and Punjab for all components, whilst on the other selected elements and advocacy are being conducted nationwide. The project is close to finishing its first year with notable appreciations in each of its components. There are over 180 early childhood education classrooms functioning and around 201 Chalo Parho Barho (CPB) camps set up; enrollment of out of school children (OOSC) has significantly increased in Sindh, Balochistan and Punjab. With targets such that each ECE classroom has at least 60 children enrolled, the results reveal that enrolment has significantly increased from mid till the end of the year with 62% of the target met. For CPB camps, the targets include enrolment of atleast 40 OOSC children (who fall outside the ECE category) per camp and 15 in-school children at the risk of dropping out. The results show that 90% of the target enrolment of in-school children and almost 70% of the target enrolment of OOSC has been met. The remaining targets are forseen to be met as phase 1 for component 1 and 2 ends in May 2015. With the incorporation of a creative curriculum to deliver quality education in camps, 15-day assessments have been conducted to assess the improvement in the learning levels of young children. Results reveal transition of a considerable number of children from the base category to higher categories of learning for all three subjects: Urdu/Sindhi, Math and English. However, the number varies across districts, reflecting a response to the differing geographical and socio-economic conditions of the districts. Alongide, government teachers have been selected and received subject-based training sessions while students have been slected to form clubs and help their schools, teachers and other fellow students with different initiatives. For the third component, an online portal for universal access to teachers is being designed and material is being uploaded. Mentors are being identified to conduct teacher training sessions due to start soon. The fourth component of learning metrics task force has conducted two meeting with the selected Learning Champions in Pakistan and is underway to design tools for assessment practices in Pakistan. The fifth component of Children‟s Literature Festival has reached out to thousands of children, setting new benchmarks.The 3rd Teachers‟ Literature Festival was recently held in Lahore and was attended by around 5000 teachers from all across Punjab. It was followed by the Children‟s Literature Festival which was successfully credited as the biggest CLF to date with an attendance of more than 35000 children, teachers and parents from all across Punjab Component 6 is reaching out to influence policy through advocacy. In this regard, ITA has partnered with A World At School (AWAS) and is taking initiatives to build a team of Education Youth Ambassadors from across Pakistan, collecting 3 million signatures for the Up4School Campaign,

  • A Preliminary Study of Thukri Net Fishery at Sonmiani Bay
    INT. J. BIOL. BIOTECH., 4 (SPECIAL ISSUE): 83-87, 2007. A PRELIMINARY STUDY OF THUKRI NET FISHERY AT SONMIANI BAY Allah Bukhsh Baloch and Q.B. Kazmi Marine Reference Collection & Resource Centre, University of Karachi ABSTRACT Key-words: INTRODUCTION Balochistan coast extends about 772 km between the Hub river in the east and border of Iran in the west. The coast may be characterized by a bay, the ”Sonmiani Bay”, backed by a lagoon called the Miani Hor (1,600km2) (Fig-1). The lagoon displays a variety of geomorphic and biological features which are very important for the ecological study of the coast. The coastal area of Balochistan is known to have a well diversified marine fauna and flora. The fish fauna is also diverse and more than 5oo fish species, 12 of squids/cuttle fish/ octopi, 5 species of lobsters and 5 species of shrimp are recorded. The main resources of Balochistan have not been fully exploited except for fish. The total fish production of Balochistan coast during the period from 1991-to-2002 showed steadily increasing trend. The production increased from 107081mt, to 123000mt in 2000. The rate of increase was 1.47% per year (Table-1). In the year 2000, fish and fishery export products of 84.693mt, a valued of Rs. 7.878 billion were exported from Pakistan. During the year 2000 out of total production, 123000mt (25.9%) were contributed by Balochistan (Source: FAO & M.F.D. 2001). In addition the total marine resources of Pakistani water is estimated to be about 600,000 mt/year, out of which inshore waters are 500,000 mt and offshore water (EEZ) are 100,000 mt approximately.

Dr. Tsai has been extremely kind to have read and offered valuable feedback and insight. Not half of this journey would have been possible without this supervision and leadership. v Abstract Influence of Advertising on Gender Roles and Stereotypes in Pakistan Sarah Fahim, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2018 Supervisor: Wei-Na Lee In a region where the world’s largest mass displacement took place in 1947, socio-political and religious influencers have been long-established drivers of societal evolution. On a historic backdrop, gender roles and stereotypes are embedded in culture and religions of the sub-continent. This research study investigates gender roles and stereotypes in modern-day Pakistan, which was created in 1947 as a result of the partition of British India. Inspiration for this thesis is drawn from personal life experiences and the complex evolution of gender roles in the country.
