Pakistan: Changing Attitudes| 4mins
Director: Joanne Levitan | Producer: Joanne Levitan
Focus Years: 2011 | Country: Italy
Synopsis:
The people from the remote Diamer District in northern Pakistan have always been conservative, religious, and suspicious of outsiders. A few years ago, there was only 9% literacy, women couldn't earn their own incomes, and people were open to extremist ideas. Now all that has changed. Although it was initially violently resisted, a poverty-alleviation project initiated by the UN's International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), has now changed people's attitudes, making them resist extremist ideologies.
