Learners’ Republic
Inspired by the Republic of Letters, Learners’ Republic is a community of scholars, practitioners, readers and all those eager to learn new developments in natural, social sciences and humanities.
Learners’ Republic is an initiative to foster an inter-disciplinary dialogue and encourage partnerships on a variety of policy, technological, and social discourse. The community is keen to promote diversity not just in disciplines but also in age and gender. Our mission is to provide an intellectually inclusive platform with a stimulating environment by allowing respectful discussion and debate across a multitude of disciplines.
Learners’ Republic strives to encourage and advance the exchange of ideas and the reporting of new developments in all aspects of challenges faced by Pakistan and rest of the world. The diversity in its membership allows for rich debates in global breakthroughs and developments.
