LAHORE –The US Agency for International Development (USAID) organised a three-day national research seminar on academic writing and dissemination to provide Pakistan academicians and researchers an opportunity to enhance their writing capabilities.
As part of the five-year Teacher Education Project, this seminar enhanced participants’ writing skills to help lead academics and present quality work at national as well as international conferences.
The $75 million initiative is aimed at helping Pakistan improve the quality of basic education through better-prepared teachers.
The project works closely with the Higher Education Commission (HEC), provincial and regional departments of education, and teacher training institutions across the country to advance these goals.
