President Dr Arif Alvi has asked COMSTECH to offer online and recorded education to students in Afghanistan.

He was talking to Coordinator-General of the Ministerial Standing Committee on Scientific and Technological Cooperation of the OIC (COMSTECH), Professor Dr Iqbal Chaudhry in Islamabad on Wednesday.

The President said recorded lessons and training modules can be a useful instrument to impart education to Afghan students, both male and female.

He said Pakistan can also offer educational modules and online education services through the Virtual University of Pakistan and Allama Iqbal Open University to provide Afghanistan with effective means for imparting higher education.

He said that this arrangement is the cheapest, most cost-effective and high-quality, and could help fill the shortage of education facilities currently being faced by Afghanistan.

The President appreciated various initiatives taken by COMSTECH in many Muslim countries for the provision of skills to the students and providing health facilities in less developed countries.
