Government College University Lahore on Wednesday trained the young Pakistani researchers in building sustainable research networks and writing grant winning research proposals at a two-day training workshop under the auspices of British Council-Higher Education Commission Pakistan joint venture "International Strategic Partnerships in Research & Education (INSPIRE) Programme".
Mark Robson, Director English and Acting Director Network, Executive Board, British Council, GCU Vice Chancellor Professor Khalid Aftab and British Council Pakistan Country Director David Martin also addressed the participants at the opening session of the training programme.
A large number of researchers from seven educational institutions across Punjab are taking part in the training which is aimed at enhancing the indigenous research culture in Pakistan and help broaden the impact of research projects and their sustainability.
Talking to researchers, Robson said that the British Council is highly committed to capacity building of the Pakistani educational institutions and training of the youth of Pakistan.

Robson believed that the Pakistani youth is highly talented and what they all needed are opportunities and guidance. Robson also showed interest in broadening the scope of academic programmes between the educational institutions of the United Kingdom and Pakistan.
Speaking on the occasion, GCU Vice Chancellor Professor Khalid Aftab said the GCU has remarkably excelled in the field of research in the last three years which is evident from the fact that the Higher Education Commission has declared GCU the best institution of Lahore on the basis of its research output. He said that such training programmes have a very important role in strengthening research culture in the university.
