ISLAMABAD: The National Security Division (NSD) is all set to host its first-ever security dialogue with an aim to define the country’s new strategic direction in line with Prime Minister Imran Khan’s vision of peace, regional connectivity and development partnerships with the world. The unique venture aims to bring together global and local intelligentsia to debate Pakistan’s critical national security issues and generate ideas to work towards combined solutions to complex challenges. The idea of transforming the think tanks into policy hubs is to help make informed policy decisions. The dialogue will bring current and former officials and local and global security and policy experts to discuss comprehensive dimensions of security, not only national security but also the economic, environmental and human security. PM Imran will also launch the first of its kind advisory portal of the national security division to bridge the traditional gap between public intellectuals and policymakers.
