The Eqbal Ahmad Centre for Public Education (EACPE) seeks to foster the use of science and reason to understand nature and society and so better enable all citizens of Pakistan to participate fully in the political, social, economic, and cultural life of their society; to exercise their democratic rights and responsibilities; to value human rights, democracy and the rule of law; to promote cultural and religious diversity; to raise awareness of global issues and the natural environment; and to advance the goals of international peace and justice.
EACPE is named to honour the life and work of distinguished Pakistani academic, activist, and public intellectual, Dr. Eqbal Ahmad.
“The EACPE record is very impressive, and hopeful — a rarity these days. About the webpage (design), I don’t have anything useful to say. Have little experience that’s relevant. To me personally, the range and choice of topics is appealing and impressive. I can’t think of any useful way to improve it.”

He deserves appreciation for the fact that he is producing worthy future physicists and mathematicians in Pakistan. It has been a sheer pleasure to attend his lectures at LUMS back in 2010.
We still have people with such high level of intellect who prefer to work in Pakistan..Both are asset and legends.We should value and appreciate them
Great interview by Hoodbhoy sahb seen after long time a real interview..all pseudo anchors of media should learn from him
WE MUST PAY A TRUE TRIBUTE TO THESE BRAVE VOICES OF CHANGE.
Really great mathematician , May Allah bless him. We are proud of him
Both professors are nice.
As a lay man i am interested to know that in the attempt to reach other planets, is physics more important than mathematics or vice versa.
