Assalam-o-Alaikum to all steemians !
I hope you're doing well. Today is Wednesday, as you are all aware, and it is the turn of the educational topic. After much consideration, I chose a topic that would benefit all readers because not everyone can read a newspaper or watch television every day owing to a hectic schedule, so I included some current events. People will have adequate information on what is going on in Pakistan after reading this, so let's get started.
1) Impacts, Digitalization, Education,and the Economy:
We know that making digital education work in low-resource contexts is incredibly difficult, and that there are numerous obstacles to overcome. Most Pakistani households now have at least one smart phone, but data availability is the most significant limitation for most students in low-income households — particularly in rural regions. As a result, we're reaching out to Pakistan's main telecom operators to see if they'd like to collaborate on a statewide digital education emergency response plan that would subsidise data for educational content via our website.Government action to make data plans available to low income households for educational purposes could also be extremely valuable.
Secondly, we understand that literacy in general and digital literacy in particular may be a constraint for many. While high cost schools are able to transition to online teaching and learning, low cost schools do not have the digital infrastructure to be able to do that. We are therefore designing extremely easy to use technology and working with low cost schools to understand their usage and develop mechanisms for them to easily share content with their students and monitor progress.
2) After COVID-19, the world is a different place:
Equal Times will work with our global network of journalists in the coming weeks and months to investigate how Covid-19 is affecting our lives, employment, communities, politics, economies, and cultures, as well as how it is likely to fundamentally rethink our futures. We'll also keep covering the plethora of non-pandemic stories that are far too significant and under-reported to be overlooked.

We're not going to take our gaze away from the ball. As governments around the world take enormous steps to combat the virus, many will take advantage of the opportunity to weaken or entirely demolish the (already shaky) human rights, labour rights, and environmental safeguards in place.
3) More realism is required in Afghanistan and Pakistan to avoid US failure.
The United States faces various issues in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Nonetheless, the political, historical, and cultural links that bind them are strong.their dividing line In each case, insecurity and violence have had negative consequences.its next-door neighbour In terms of security, political stability, and economic growth,Afghanistan has been on a downward spiral for some time, with limited chances for improvement.There has already been a failure on the part of the international community. Pakistan
now has to deal with the consequences of long-standing democratic flaws.governance and economic policy, as well as a current political authority crisis,Instability in the economy and violent risks to national security.
Armed insurgency, Taliban ideology, and Al Qaeda activity have all been found along Pakistan's Afghan border. These have capitalised on the Pakistani state's political failure as well as the country's economic fragility.As a severe danger to personal security and political power, the internet has developed.Pakistan's democratic administration is shaky, and the country is still trying to establish itself.in the midst of a financial crisis Its ability to act on security issuesAs a result, is severely impeded.
4) Pak_US current issues and development :
The failure of the United States in Afghanistan reflects the failure of the United States' approach to Pakistan. Islamabad has been the Taliban's most major foreign backer since its inception in the 1990s, when it assisted in the group's formation and later worked against the US to ensure its survival and resurrection. Today, senior members of Pakistan's security establishment are celebrating the Taliban's re-accession to power in Kabul. Despite receiving billions of dollars in funding and cutting-edge military weaponry from the US, they remain persuaded that their unflinching support for the extreme Islamist group was a clever strategic move.
5) The role of NDMA in Pakistan's response to Covid 19 :
The government has issued the COVID-19 National Action Plan (NAP), which aims to: I contain and respond to the outbreak in a timely and efficient manner; (ii) prioritise financial resources and increase domestic and international investment for country emergency preparedness; and (iii) implement emergency preparedness actions by strengthening inter-sectoral collaboration with government officials.
The plan includes mechanisms for planning and coordination, laboratory support, food security, logistics, communication, infection prevention and control at PoEs and health facilities, health worker training, human resource management, quarantine preparedness, isolation hospitals, surveillance, reduced community exposure, and monitoring and evaluation.
Friends, it took me three days to write this, and I tried my hardest to make each reader's perspective apparent. See you guys in the next post.
