Pakistan is in the spotlight for the largest number of out of school children (26 million) and millions not learning the basics (ASER 2010-2023). Deficits of access and quality morph into an equity gap with gender and generational impact. The Prime Minister of Pakistan within 9 weeks of stepping into office declared a National Education Emergency (May 8, 2024) followed by 14 time-bound directives through mobilisation of ministries of Finance, Health and Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety (PASS) as well as BISP, National Vocational Technical Training Commission (NAVTCC), SBP, SECP, etc. The Ministry of Federal Education & Professional Training (MoFE&PT) is tasked with coordination and enabling provincial consensus as education is fully devolved for policy, planning, curriculum, financing and implementation. There is déjà vu regarding the ‘Education Emergency Encounters’ in Pakistan; what will be different this time around? Education is a wicked problem, multiplied with a runaway population growth rate: 7 million babies are born annually. It is the biggest elephant in the room. The Ed-Pop debacle is a ‘losing battle’ needing an irreversible national action plan. Education can never be a single sector performer; its transformation needs strong ‘multi-sectoralism’ for sustainable nation building and survival.
