Exciting Developments in Azad Jammu & Kashmir: Dr. Muqeem’s New Role at KIM
If you’ve been following the latest news from Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJK), you might have heard about Dr. Muhammad Muqeem ul Islam stepping into an important position as the new director general of the Kashmir Institute of Management (KIM). This appointment, made by the AJK Prime Minister, comes after a meticulous selection process endorsed by the KIM board of governors.
Now, you might be wondering, why is this position so crucial? Well, for the past 18 months, KIM has been without a director, which has significantly impacted the training and development of civil servants in the region. Effective governance relies heavily on well-trained officials, and the absence of leadership at KIM has created a gap in administrative development that many felt needed urgent attention.
Dr. Muqeem brings a wealth of knowledge to the table with a PhD in Public Policy & Governance from the National Defence University (NDU) and additional credentials from the University of Oxford. His extensive experience, spanning over 25 years, includes senior positions at leading institutions like the National School of Public Policy (NSPP) and the National Institute of Public Administration (NIPA). With a robust background in public policy and economic development, he is well-equipped to guide KIM into a new era of excellence.
The roadmap ahead is promising. Dr. Muqeem’s leadership could pave the way for innovative training programs and initiatives that enhance the skills of our civil servants. It’s about more than just teaching; it’s about fostering a culture of effective governance and accountability that benefits the entire community.
As we keep an eye on what unfolds at KIM, it’s a good time to reflect on how leadership and education are intertwined. They are vital not just in administrative roles but across all sectors of society.
