Farida Himet Khan

Farida Himat Khan is founding Principal of Islamabad Nursing College (INC) in Pakistan. Eager to improve the image of nursing in Pakistan and with the pandemic changing the course of learning for the year Farida Khan and the managing director, Mr. Yasir Khan Niazi, brainstormed innovative ways to engage their students, faculty members, as well as professionals from other institutions in Pakistan and around the globe.

Therefore, Farida and INC initiated a series of webinars in December 2020. In this series, there are webinars on different topics conducted every two months by renowned scholars.There are 18 webinars in total planned for the students to take part in. These webinars are not only limited to the topics related to purely academic settings but also included sessions like coping with stressors during pandemic, career counseling and volunteering to name a few topics.

Farida is hopeful that these webinars will open the doors for more connections and collaborations with national and international organizations and individual scholars.
