United States Educational Foundation in Pakistan

For decades, educational exchange between the United States and Pakistan has helped build a legacy of excellence in classrooms.

American Fulbright Science Specialist Robert S. Andrews, attached to the Education Extension Center, helped plan workshops built around one goal: to "Make Better Science Teachers." Drawing on the strength of the American education system, specialists like Andrews worked alongside local educators across 20 pilot model schools, part of a long-standing partnership in teacher training and faculty development between the two countries.

USEFP Executive Director Dr. Peter Moran met with academic and industry leaders in Karachi to discuss strengthening higher education partnerships between the United States and Pakistan, with a focus on expanding fellowship access for universities across Sindh. These partnerships open doors for research collaboration, faculty development, and academic exchange, connecting Sindh's institutions with leading U.S. universities.

Dr. Moran engaged with Dr. Muhammad Ali Shaikh, Vice Chancellor of Ziauddin University; Vice Chancellors from NED University of Engineering and Technology, Sufi University of Modern Sciences, Karachi University, and Shahid Benazir Bhutto University, Nawabshah, among others; and Dr. Nishat Riaz, Chief Executive of Malala Fund in Pakistan.

“Humphrey did not simply change my career trajectory; it changed my philosophy of leadership. It taught me that effective leaders do not merely manage institutions; they cultivate people, nurture partnerships, and create cultures where innovation can thrive,” shares Humphrey Fellow Dr. Farhan Saeed Vakani in this article.

The Humphrey Fellowship, a Fulbright exchange, brings mid-career professionals to the United States and provides practical insight into how American policies are developed and implemented, working alongside U.S. experts in their fields.
