Expert
Dr. M. Shakil Ahmad is an active researcher and trainer. My interdisciplinary work explores the linkage between community empowerment and sustainable development. I am interested in the opportunity that citizen social science affords policy, as a sustainable approach to data collection and analysis, but also the role that public involvement in information infrastructures could play in challenging technocracy and promoting a more open and potentially democratic approach to social science research. I have a background in social Policy, cultural policy and participatory research, having experience of working with local governance in Pakistan and Malaysia. Moreover, working in the area of parenting style and student academic achievement and their aggressive behavior.
