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.”

Wow, two smart people together.
Salam had innocence of a child and intellect of a giant, a real genius.
A thery whch can be falsified is the good theory in science, what i remember from my science lessons
Legend
Our national pride
Visionary Talk. Great personality.
Every bit as humble as he was intelligent.
I knew Prof. Salam for long time being only Nobel Prize winner in Science from Pakistan who has not been allowed recognition in his beloved country by clergies and ignorants. First time Prof Hoodbhoy introduced the real Abdus Salam and great enjoyable talk about him.
I wish that he brings more interested knowledge about him. Time will come when more Scientists like Salam and Hoodbhoy will be born in our country.
