The Programme was attended by 35 participants from Australia, Belgium, Canada, India, Kenya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Portugal, South Africa, UK, and USA. The faculty was drawn from AKU-ISMC, SFU-CCSMSC, the School of African and Oriental Studies (SOAS), and the Institute of Ismaili Studies.
Participants found the programme to be a ‘wonderful, thought provoking course’. Many appreciated the ‘non-partisan’ approach taken by the diverse and experienced faculty. The course was found to be ‘motivating and inspiring’ and all participants felt it exceeded their expectations.
