AKU – Giving Back

“AKU – Giving Back” was created in 2012 with a singular mission in mind:

To provide a platform for individuals who are linked to the Aga Khan University (AKU) to give back to each other, our students, our institution, our people, the needy, or any other altruistic endeavor that they wish to pursue.

To facilitate this mission, this group provides a springboard to facilitate success for individuals who are linked to AKU. For example, those who are early in career may seek advice on career development and navigating the pursuit of further education. Those who are later in their career may use the group for networking, development of specialty groups and collaboration. Finally, those who are settled in their career path may use the group to mentor and inspire other members and to pursue selfless endeavors.
