Dr Asma Shahid Kazi received the prestigious Skoll Foundation scholarship, being the only one from Pakistan, and one among ten across the globe, to attend TEDWomen 2019 in Palm Springs USA from 2-6 December 2019.

The Skoll Foundation is a global supporter of the TEDx network of curators and conveners who are strengthening community and civic discourse in 170+ countries around the world.

The Skoll Foundation drives large-scale change by investing in, connecting and celebrating social entrepreneurs who transform our world for the better. By purposefully connecting TEDx organizers and Skoll's communities, platforms and insights, their goal is to improve society on a local-to-global scale with ideas worth spreading.

By identifying the people and programs already bringing positive change around the world, the Skoll Foundation empowers them to extend their reach, deepen their impact, and fundamentally improve society on a local to global scale.
