Over the month of August, together with our partner, the Pakistan Institute of Development Economics, we’ve been taking the conversation across the country to hear what people think about reform priorities in these areas. The upcoming dialogue will bring together leading thinkers from youth, academia, think tanks, business, public sector, and civil society from across Pakistan to discuss how reforms in these areas can shape the future of Pakistan and enable a sustainable shift towards inclusive economic development.
