Hosted by the American Pakistan Foundation and The Atlantic Council.

Please join us for a round-table conversation with civil society leaders from Pakistan who engage with the government to improve the quality of public education. Pakistan is the world's fifth largest country and home to the world's second largest out-of-school population. Despite the many challenges, the work of non-profit organizations like The Citizens Foundation and Teach for Pakistan fill critical gaps in public education. Speakers will address what it will take to make quality public education and social mobility within reach for every child.
