As Director of the Global Engagement Office, it is a meaningful responsibility to help advance AKU’s international vision through inclusive partnerships, dynamic mobility programmes, and impactful global collaborations.

Inspired by the guidance of our founding Chancellor, His Highness the Aga Khan IV, who emphasized the importance of "partnerships of depth and breadth," GEO embraces a holistic approach that connects AKU and AKDN to the world through education, research, and service.

We support our community in tackling shared global challenges—from climate change and health inequities to inclusive education and digital innovation. GEO enables AKU to expand its global presence while deepening institutional impact at the regional and local levels.

By connecting our faculty, staff, and students with meaningful international experiences, joint research, and co-developed opportunities, we help shape a globally engaged university that is rooted in service and collaboration.

We welcome you to partner with us in building a more inclusive and connected future.
