Pakistan's Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building: Challenges and Strategies towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Full text linkPakistan has encountered substantial obstacles in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) due to systemic institutional flaws and inadequate skill development. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of these challenges, highlighting issues such as insufficient financial resources, political instability, ineffective stakeholder coordination, and gaps in human resource development. Additional barriers include stakeholder resistance and a lack of robust tracking and evaluation mechanisms. To address these issues, the study recommends several strategies: significantly boosting investments in education and training programs, decentralizing decision-making to empower local governments, and enhancing collaboration among governmental bodies, businesses, and civil society organizations. A coordinated approach that integrates efforts from the public and private sectors as well as non-governmental organizations is crucial for overcoming these barriers. By adopting these recommendations, Pakistan can make substantial strides towards achieving the SDGs and fostering sustainable development. Data for this study were collected through a rigorous review of reports, news articles, and academic research using qualitative methods.

FROM ‘VERBAL’ TO ‘VISUAL’ RHETORICAL FIGURES: A REVIEW OF CLASSIFICATIONS, TAXONOMIES AND TYPOLOGIES
Full text linkFrom classical antiquity to the postmodern ubiquity of advertising, rhetorical figures (verbal or visual) occupied the pivotal position in the Western theory of rhetoric and persuasion. Under the traditional categories of figures of speech and figures of thought, it is fair enough to regard them as the “graces of language”, as the “dressing of thought”, as “ornaments”, as “embellishments”, for truly they do “decorate” our everyday language and give it a “style,” in the couturier’s sense. However, it would be a misperception to regard ornamentation as the central or sole function of figures. Affectingly, they have the ability to captivate an audience, evoke emotions, and drive home a point with resonance. In order to explore such nuances of rhetorical figures, the present study delves deeper into their problem of terminological confusion(s) and their deep definitional complexities that have a rich history, evolving alongside the art of suasion and persuasion. In fact, the study aims at exploring the distinct evolution of rhetorical figures from their verbal origins to their modern visual applications. Lastly, the study examines various recent classifications, taxonomies and typologies of both verbal and visual rhetorical figures to highlight research gaps and avenues for future studies
