Harvard University students visited the Hunza Valley to explore the rich history of Altit Fort and its ancient heritage. During their visit to the historic settlement of Altit, they were briefed by Mr. Irfan, President of the Altit Town Management Society, who shared fascinating insights into the site's past and present. The students were particularly interested in learning about the role of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN) and the impactful projects led by Aga Khan Cultural Service Pakistan, which have significantly improved the living conditions of the local community.
The visit also included a stop at Ciqam Green Solutions, where Aqila Bano highlighted the vital role of women empowerment initiatives in the region.
