About Me

Asghar khan has grown up in a tribal setup and has very closely seen the miseries faced by tribal communities in Balochistan, which has given hype to liberation movements and extremism. He started campaigns to overcome these threatening narratives, those campaigns yielded in shape of three different profitable and non-profitable ventures i.e. DEWA Foundation, The Joycation and Food Republic.
He has tried to capture his work in a brief (3 min- can't get shorter than that) in below link:
