ELC faculty members took part in “Celebrating International Education Week 2020 through Virtual Networking” with Pakistani teachers and faculty from a number of other U.S. universities.  The event, hosted by the Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Consulate General in Karachi, included remarks from several of the participants about their experiences with educational exchanges and teacher training programs and their efforts to share the knowledge they have gained with their own students.  

Participants were put into Zoom breakout rooms for the final segment of the event, during which time they had the opportunity to discuss how they promote diversity and inclusion in their own classrooms, as well as how they might be able to stay connected to offer opportunities for exchange between their students.  

The ELC and a number of other US institutions took part in a virtual celebration for International Education Week (IEW) as part of the U.S. Mission in Pakistan.. The program was an opportunity for American and Pakistani English language educationalists to network with each other to discuss the importance of international education and collaboration. The ELC faculty members were part of lively conversations where they celebrated diversity and engaged in discussions that started new friendships.
