Description

Byline: Dr. Sania Nishtar We live in a world today where many interconnected systemic risks cast a deep shadow on the unprecedented opportunities created by technological and scientific advancements in a globalized world. A snap shot view of the last three years is evidence of the scale of the threats and the uncertainties they create. At the recent meeting of the Global Agenda Council of the World Economic Forum in Dubai some of the top issues in the global risk landscape and their possible mitigates were highlights. Ironically, the few of us from Pakistan could relate to most systemic risks as being endemic to our sovereign environment, each of them inextricably multi-dimensional in their scope. As global experts underscored the salience of effective governance structures, accountability, and clarity in multi-stakeholder concerted action as the means of addressing these risks, one could not help reflect on ones own constraints within that space.
