The Institute for South Asia Studies is delighted to announce that we have been awarded $214,000 from the Institute of International Education to host the 2016 Fulbright Pakistan Social Entrepreneurship and Re-entry Seminar. At the end of April, ISAS will be hosting 160 Pakistani students for a four day seminar to introduce them to the world of social enterprise and to prepare them for their return home. The seminar will provide the students with the opportunity to reflect on their Fulbright exchange experience, develop professional goals and skills to apply when they return home, and learn methods to cope with any potential personal, social, and cultural challenges. Through a framework of social entrepreneurship and drawing upon the experiences of community members and ISAS faculty, we aim to help the Fulbrighters achieve these objectives.
