@bbclysedoucet doesn’t tell Afghanistan’s story through headlines or politics alone, she tells it through people, especially women, whose voices r so often ignored or erased. Essential reading for anyone who wants to understand #Afghanistan beyond clichés.

Totally agree..it’s really concerning that choosing a refund as booking credit means guests can nev get their money back. It’s unfair that @Airbnb doesn’t provide any clear process for challenging it.Airbnb should ensure transparency and offer fair options to consumers.@bchesky
The latest is I cannot get the booking credit back into my account. If I delete my account I loose the booking credit. If I want to take it to a UK consumer forum Airbnb does not provide the details on where I could challenge this. @Airbnb @bchesky #airbnbfail

Heartbreaking news from Coney Island nursing home. No one should face abuse in a place that’s meant to care for them. We must demand accountability.

Proud of voices like Prof. @drshahzadhsa a true public health visionary! at the #SelfRelianceInHealthcare conf, he rightly stressed: Pak must cut its $1B health imports by investing in local manufacturing, especially for rural, low-cost essentials. 👏

"The disparity isn’t accidental it’s institutional." The govt urgently needs to develop more inclusive & responsive sys to tackle climate change.Both preparedness & positive policy action r currently lacking, especially for those most vulnerable to its impacts. #ClimatePolicy
As deadly heatwaves grip Pakistan, millions in peri urban areas suffer silently as they remain overlooked by policy and unprepared without protection

Really appreciate 🇵🇰 Govt's move to link both domestic & intl funding with output & performance. Accountability & transparency must b nonnegotiable. Time to hold non-productive departments answerable for utlizating state resources to ensure public money delivers real impact.

Starting my journey through history with "Jinnah of Pakistan" by Stanley Wolpert... Excited to learn how to honor the visionary leader, the jinnah of Pakistan, a symbol of independence, resilience n hope.

Why do some lives matter less than others? My article in @etribune explores the chilling reality for transgender victims in Pak & exposes society’s deep-rooted biases. I wrote a few years ago,& sadly,the situation remains unchanged.

Unfortunately,the loophole in law allowed the perpetrators of honour killings.According to the evidence, more thn100women were killed by relatives in Pak this year in the name of so-called“honor",while many more cases go unreported.@ncswpk @mohrpakistan @AyeshaRaza13 @unwomen_pak
When the brother intervened, the accused killed him as well, the SHO said.

It was an honour to meet honourable Lord Mayor @Yasmine_Dar & @MajidDarLMC as her Consort.
She pledged to continue her relentless support to ensure an enabling environment for women leaders who want to bring a positive change. @NHSEngland #WomenLeaders #LordMayor

What a mess ...they say those who fail to learn from history are condemned to repeat it. .. actually doesn't repeat itself but it does often rhyme.. Sad indeed

Child sexual abuse which we see through media is just a tip of the iceberg, as, according to the evidence, over five lakh and fifty thousand children, both boys and girls are sexually abused in fact raped in Pakistan every year.
Ironically, we have now laws in place for child protection, but they are not implemented.One of the main reasons why CSA is so prevalent in Pakistan is the deeply entrenched patriarchal norms that exist in the country.

Read "Kotwalnama," my poignant memoir that analyzes the quest for rule of law, good governance, and a more just society- disappointing when hope fails but inspiring when it succeeds.

Around 9PM on the 5th of July, Omar Nawaz Awan left his mother’s house to return home with his wife and four minor daughters. Only a minute out, he was intercepted by unknown cars who nearly rammed his vehicle on Sahibzada Abdul Qayyum Road in I-8/2. (1/n)

نثار میں تری گلیوں کے اے وطن کہ جہاں
چلی ہے رسم کہ کوئی نہ سر اُٹھا کے چلے
جو کوئی چاہنے والا طواف کو نکلے
نظر چرا کے چلے، جسم و جاں بچا کے چلے
ہے اہل دل کے لیے اب یہ نظمِ بست و کشاد
کہ سنگ و خشت مقید ہیں اور سگ آزاد..💔🇵🇰
