Education and skills for the future

RELATED READING BOOKS  

As the world rapidly evolves, there are certain skills and educational paths that will become increasingly valuable in the future. Here are some examples:

1. Digital literacy: As technology continues to play an integral role in all aspects of our lives, being digitally literate will be essential. This includes understanding how to use and interact with various digital tools and platforms, as well as being able to navigate and process information online - TUTORIALS - MICROSOFT GOOGLE - LINKED IN

2. Critical thinking and problem-solving: With the world becoming more complex and interconnected, the ability to analyze information, identify patterns, and solve problems will be increasingly important - TUTORIALS

3. Creativity and innovation: With the pace of change accelerating, being able to think creatively and come up with innovative solutions will be highly valued -TUTORIALS

4. Emotional intelligence: As we interact more with artificial intelligence and automation, the ability to empathize, communicate effectively, and build relationships will become even more important - TUTORIALS

5. Data analysis: As we generate more data than ever before, the ability to interpret and make decisions based on that data will be highly valued - TUTORIALS

6. Lifelong learning: With the pace of change accelerating, being able to adapt and learn new skills will be critical for success - TUTORIALS

7. Sustainability: As we face increasing environmental challenges, having a strong understanding of sustainability principles and how to implement them will be highly valued - TUTORIALS

Overall, education and training that emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and adaptability, as well as a strong foundation in digital literacy and data analysis, will be highly valuable for the future. Additionally, skills and knowledge related to sustainability, emotional intelligence, and cross-cultural communication will be increasingly important as the world becomes more interconnected.

Summary of My Advocacy for our Region

  1.  ADVOCACY - FOR HUNZA  For the communities through SELF-HELP:
         A.    ROAD-MAP:    This post proposes a ROAD-MAP with the aim of goading the populations in the region to start a journey which can result in  a desirable situation for the present and coming generation.

        B.    DISTANT EDUCATION AND SKILLS:    KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY INITIATIVE - In the digital age world class education as well as skills are universally accessible as such depending on BRICK and MORTAR facilities of questionable standards will fail to prepare competitive HR for a global world. There is definite need for reorientation towards methods and facilities made accessible by technology. 2020 is going to be a year of high speed change in emerging technology. Advocacy on Teaching, Learning and Networking through the State of Art Learning Centers in GB. UNESCO REPORT

https://x.com/csgbpk/status/1707263332393095306?s=20



        C.    Home Tutoring: Free of cost world-class education and skills at door-steps (ECD to PHD)

        D.    Hunza Culture: BHT Entrusted to the promotion and preservation of cultural and historical heritage of this part of world. 

        E.    Floating Hydroelectric Generator & Pumping Station: Indigenous designed generator which produces cheap and sustainable energy directly from slow moving water in man-made water channels, natural rivulets, rivers and canals throughout Pakistan (anywhere in the world).

It produces cheap electricity for the region and beyond through technology implementable at village level, at the same time meant for pumping water to irrigate barren land all over GB thus creating a potential for poverty alleviation and thousands of jobs in coming decades. Concrete Proposal towards Hunza Power Supply Company

        F.    ON-LINE DISSEMINATION OF TALIMAT: Comprehensive set of books covering Ismaili Faith and Practice, The programme of education that examines Islam as both faith and civilisation in world history and in contemporary times.
        G.    Mandates and Coordination of social organizations namely TMS, BHT, BRSO, KWA with Jamati Institutiions and adoption of civil society learning Material as basis of operating procedures.

        H.    LIFELONG LEARNING & USE OF STATE OF ART FACILITIES established by the Government, AKDN and Chinese.
        I.    POLITICAL ACTION:    I have been advocating "political action" through civil society in preference to the divisive system of political parties. It is apparent that this theme is not accepted by vast majorities and questions have been posed as to how progress for the society is possible by deviating from this commonly adopted course. If you go through the happiness index for the countries, you will find Switzerland in the lead. I have posted this article as a good example of "direct democracy" results over the divisive and nonperforming "INDIRECT DEMOCRACY" system that we have inherited.



Switzerland is a direct democracy, where the people can influence the activities of government through initiatives and referendums. The political process is played out at three levels, federal, cantonal and communal.
        J.    ATTAINMENT OF DIAMOND JUBILEE GOALS
K.  IDEA DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS: 
e Imam has set four goals and how to achieve these.I have developed the "idea demonstration projects" and my ideas on how to implement for wider impact. Now all those interested on this topic can visit the site of these projects see them clarify any question, share better ideas and implement the way they deem more appropriate.
I hope the idea demonstration projects convey gist of following important messages to the populations in our region:

        Q.    CPEC Authority and Representation of GB. COMPLAINT DETAILS:

CPEC is expected to be a game changer in economical uplift of populations - specially the poor regions. Since 1982 AKDN has introduced efforts through CIVIL SOCIETY to achieve three goals for the povert stricken populations through SELF HELP - STRATEGY: Organize populations in terms of VOs/WOs as well as 72 LSOs that will direct their efforts preferably as a NETWORK throughout GB.

In this scenario it is but natural that collective representation in the CPEC AUTHORITY should be ensured through this collective body rather than any other option.
