Event Description: Pakistan’s Patriot Act: Looking Into the Future

SZABIST Social Sciences Society invites you to participate in the Patriot’s Act to better assess

“What Pakistan Needs Now.”

Being Social Scientists ourselves, we understand that there is a need for the educated and energetic Pakistani youth of today to come together and come up with practical solutions to solve the multitude of problems Pakistan is facing today. We wish to give such students a platform where they can actively debate, criticize, analyze and reflect on various problems and at the same time reminisce the history of our culture through literature.

We welcome all students who wish to revive the Social Scientists within them through our interactive sessions.
