From the Hijab Ban to the Political Crisis in Pakistan, We’ve Curated 10 Not-to-be-Missed Events from the Last Year

 

The academic year is just wrapping up here in Cambridge, and we wanted to take an opportunity to share with you a specially curated sampling of the important programming we held over the last two semesters. The Mittal Institute is Harvard’s hub for hosting some of the most important and pressing discussions on South Asia past, present and future from across disciplines. This year, we brought together over 200 leading experts, practitioners and policymakers to discuss such wide-ranging topics as the elections in India, the environment, COVID-19 and the way forward for the region, the current political situation in Pakistan and much more. With over 100+ events, the Mittal Institute team sifted through them to present here a selection our top 10.
