David Prosser, Forbes, How Maqsad’s Mobile Education Can Help More Pakistani Students Learn, 16 March 2023 “Maqsad aims to make education more accessible to 100 million Pakistani students through a learning platform delivered via a mobile app. The platform offers teaching and testing, and can respond to queries. It seeks to disrupt the country’s out-of-school education sector, which largely consists of expensive tuition services that most families can’t afford.”
