I was looking for some statistics on pakistan and came to a very useful site which distribute views on Pakistan. The ideology is very nice and the following article well depicts the website objectives. 

The idea of Study Circles to promote “informed” community participation in decision-making originated in Sweden in the 19th Century. Today, study circles are used around the world in a host of different setting ranging from a collaborative “self-education” device to motivate learning and learning from each other, to a to means for working on complex community projects in a participative manner, to creating grass-roots awareness of and practice deliberative democracy.  The concept of Study Circles is not new to Pakistan, or its politics either. While we’re not among the most “intellectual-minded” of the nations, study circles have been used in religious and political contexts before. The Mahajir Qaumi Movement (for instance) uses study circles to create political awareness among its members on issues that matter to us. What we propose to do here is, however, a little different.

The purpose Understanding Pakistan Project is to help Pakistanis around the world enhance the understanding of their country and become ”informed” citizens who could actively and meaningfully participate in the democratic process. We Pakistanis often gripe about the lack of well-informed and well-intentioned participation of the more educated out of us in our democracy. In our desperation to find an alternative to despotic military regimes or corrupt civilian rule, we often ask ourselves a question: Is there a third way? Can we create an alternate political force that can rise above the petty politics of the day to steer Pakistan towards its destiny.
