Even in this age of information explosion, Seminars and Symposia
have an importance of their own, particularly in countries which
are scientifically and geographically remote from active centres of
learning. Our scientists suffer this isolation very acutely; the
Cow ission recognises this problem and has endeavoured to solve it
through organisation of meetings and conferences in Pakistan to
which international specialists in different fields are invited to
share their experience with colleagues in Pakistan. We find that
the personal encounter and human touch still remain one of the most
effective methods of transferring and sharing scientific knowledge.
The International Summer College at Nathiagali held in August,
1976, also grew out of our need to communicate with each other and
to identify promising areas of development relevant to the needs of
a developing country. In the implementation of this idea, the Pakis
tan Atomic Energy Commission received support from the
International Centre for Theoretical Physics, Trieste and from the
Swedish Inter national Development Authority which is gratefully
acknowledged."
