Ep.11: The Rise and Fall of Student Unions in Pakistan

Join us as we discuss the extensive impact of student unions on Pakistan's political and social landscapes. This episode underscores the transformative power of younger generations in shaping societal norms and policies.

Tracing the influence from the 1950s to today, we discuss the rise of student movements, the repression under Zia-ul-Haq, and the revival efforts in current times.

Specific topics include the ban on student unions, curriculum censorship, and the resurgence of student activism exemplified by movements like the Student Solidarity March and Sindh Student Union Bill.
