In India’s foreign policy, regional integration is of utmost importance. In the last few years, the breadth and extent of India’s foreign development aid programs among developing nations have massively expanded. Credit lines, financial support, tech support, rescue operations, human rights assistance, educational grants, and an assortment of capacity-building programs like military training courses are among them.
One of the countries greatly benefiting from such programs is the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. A little while back, the country had captured news headlines all over the world, but there’s a lot more than meets the eye than the gloom-ridden deeds that make up news in a pragmatic world like ours. The human habitation in Afghanistan dates back to the Middle Palaeolithic era, and its strategic location along the Silk Road connects it with Asian and Middle Eastern culture.
Lovely Professional University splendidly fits the definition of a globally connected university; it has tie-ups with 150+ universities worldwide and a large but diverse international student population, which also comprises brilliant prodigies from the Afghan community. Taking a step towards the greater good, Lovely Professional University, in collaboration with the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Govt. of India, conducted the prestigious Indian Technical & Economic Cooperation (ITEC) Programme for candidates of Afghanistan, graced by four elite bureaucrats from the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan!
Education Attache Mr. Sediqullah Sahar, Defense Attache Colonel Karimullah Karim, Deputy Defence Attache Major Mohammad Agha Ayar, and Head of Administration Ziaullah Hashimi. Mr. Sediqullah addressed the audience and expressed gratitude to Lovely Professional University for hosting the educational workshops for the sake of his nation. He also labeled the initiative as one of the most comprehensive career and capacity-building initiatives for Afghan cadets. Col Karim expressed his desire that candidates must learn by being subjected to a strict code of conduct and being actively involved in the process.
Under this program, candidates will be allowed to go through two career and capacity-building programs chalked out by Lovely Professional University faculty to maximize their learning of high-order skills. It’s worth remembering that Lovely Professional University has already organized numerous ITEC programs abroad, contributing to the welfare of our society. Leveraging its experience Lovely Professional University’s capable of delivering technical expertise and knowledge to other countries, as well as mentoring opportunities, consulting services, and feasibility studies. Such initiatives continue to generate a great deal of goodwill and meaningful engagement among developing countries.
