Heartbreaking. 💔
The silent battles a woman, a wife, fights behind closed doors… The strength she must find even when she feels like breaking. Some battles are fought in silence, and some wounds are invisible. 💔

CJP Isa through a full court and live transmission has at least shown that he unlike his predecessor isn't scared of dissent from his colleagues. Under the previous CJP dissenting notes would be deleted from the Supreme Court website and today the new CJP wants entire proceedings to be in public knowledge. – at Karachi, Pakistan
Proper and right decision by CJP Isa to broadcast Supreme Court Proceedings live specially on important constitutional matters. The Judges are there to serve the people hence their conduct and actions should be transparent. This would only make the Judges more accountable. This also cuts out the unnecessary drama created by Reporters about judges and court proceedings as the people can see what happens for themselves.
Our Judiciary needs to take to embrace the digital age and use technology to make courts and justice more accessible.

Exciting field experiment by @SanvalNasim (@ColbyCollege) and @A_Stegmann (@uniofwarwick) to study whether concerns to preserve an anti-liberal self-image affect low-cost, private school owners’ willingness to explore a collaboration with a liberal Pakistani NGO.

What a fantastic group @thelahoreschool & @CREB_Pak have. I’m in awe at the brilliant women who make this such a vibrant environment.
Can somebody write a paper on the impact they are having on female students? I’m sure it’s HUGE!
