all these days \u2013 the preservation of our environment. \n\u00a0\nThe play begins with Chiya, a little girl who lives with her grandmother in the village of Gandpur. Her world revolves around a tree and the hope it gives for a green future. When Chiya is taken to the city by her Aunt and city-slick cousins, she is lost in a confused world of noise, pollution, machines and fast food. Her cousins initially make fun of her because they do not understand Chiya\u2019s concern about the use of pesticides and the importance of organic food. Eventually Chiya wins them over to her cause. \u00a0Not only do the children refuse to accept the consumerism of the world they live in, but they convince their families, teachers and friends to make some vital changes towards a better environment. \n\u00a0\n\u201cUnfit Ball\u201d is a play that promises to entertain the audience in the true Grips tradition of songs and laughter, and carries an important message for both children and adults, making it a wonderful evening of family entertainment.\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                            <div class='etn-schedule-speaker'>\n                                                                                        <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                        <div class='etn-single-schedule-item etn-schedule-grid-item'>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-info'>\n                                                                            <span class='etn-schedule-time'> 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm <\/span>\n                                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-location'>\n                                        <i class='etn-icon etn-location'><\/i>Society Suite                                        <\/span>\n                                                                        <\/div>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-content'>\n                                    <h4 class='etn-title'> Gen Z Unfiltered: AI, Identity &amp; the World Ahead<\/h4>\n                                    <p><p class=\"event-type\">wow junior<p>\n\nWriting has always been a feminist tool of resistance and imagination. Today, as AI-generated content becomes increasingly widespread, questions about the future of authentic writing, ethics, creativity, and voice have never been more urgent. The next generation is growing up at a crossroads: a world where artificial intelligence is reshaping industries, traditional career paths are being rewritten, and social awareness is evolving faster than ever. In this dynamic space, Gen Z is forming its own voice\u2014bold, questioning, honest, and deeply aware of the world around them.\n\nThis panel brings together students from Bayview Academy and KGS to explore the issues that matter most to them. Through discussion, they will examine:\n\u2014 Is writing becoming more or less meaningful in an AI-saturated world?\n\u2014 How do we protect literature and creative expression?\n\u2014 How do young people build their own voice amidst rapid technological and social change?\n\nTheir perspectives offer a window into a rapidly transforming future, where creativity, ethics, and self-expression intersect in powerful and unexpected way\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n

Rather than treating AI as an abstract or inevitable force, the discussion explores what it actually means for people whose work is rooted in craft, cultural memory, and place.\n\nWith a particular focus on artisans in the Global South, the panel examines how creativity is inseparable from community, environment, and livelihood. Panelists will reflect on the opportunities, tensions, and risks AI presents for makers who work with their hands, inherit generational knowledge, and depend on local ecosystems.

Moving beyond performative allyship, the conversation centres accountability, emotional literacy, and the everyday choices men make that either reinforce or challenge patriarchal norms.\n\nDrawing on lived experience, panelists explore how gendered power dynamics impact women, marginalized communities, and frontline workers, and why reimagining masculinity is essential for more just, inclusive, and sustainable futures. A grounded, solution-oriented discussion that invites men not as saviours, but as partners \u2014 learning how to use influence to create space, not dominate it.\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                            <div class='etn-schedule-speaker'>\n                                                                                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/talha-rehman\/' aria-label=\"Talha Rehman\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Untitled-design-2-4.png\" alt=\"Talha Rehman\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Talha Rehman<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/jibran-nisar\/' aria-label=\"Jibran Nisar\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Jibran-Nasir.png\" alt=\"Jibran Nisar\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Jibran Nisar<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/imran-zafar\/' aria-label=\"Imran Zafar\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Untitled-design-30.png\" alt=\"Imran Zafar\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Imran Zafar<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                        <div class='etn-single-schedule-item etn-schedule-grid-item'>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-info'>\n                                                                            <span class='etn-schedule-time'> 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm <\/span>\n                                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-location'>\n                                        <i class='etn-icon etn-location'><\/i>Society Suite                                         <\/span>\n                                                                        <\/div>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-content'>\n                                    <h4 class='etn-title'>Whose Story Matters?

Through guided discussion and selected drama clips, participants will explore who gets to tell stories on screen, forms of storytelling including melodrama and romance, and how themes such as marriage, honour, inheritance, and coercive control are portrayed in popular narratives.\nThe session invites audiences to critically reflect on the representation of normalised behaviours, social stigmas, and emotions that trigger discomfort, empathy, or trauma. Combining audience discussion, small group engagement, and reflective exercises, the workshop creates space for dialogue on how media narratives represent lived realities\u2014particularly for women\u2014and how viewers interpret, respond to and are impacted by representations of gender and violence in everyday popular media  content consumption.<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                            <div class='etn-schedule-speaker'>\n                                                                                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/amina-yakin\/' aria-label=\"Dr. Amina Yaqin\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Amina-Yakin.png\" alt=\"Dr. Amina Yaqin\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Dr. Amina Yaqin<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                        <div class='etn-single-schedule-item etn-schedule-grid-item'>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-info'>\n                                                                            <span class='etn-schedule-time'> 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm <\/span>\n                                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-location'>\n                                        <i class='etn-icon etn-location'><\/i>Jasmine                                        <\/span>\n                                                                        <\/div>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-content'>\n                                    <h4 class='etn-title'>Cancer, Chaos and Creative Ethos.

Through personal storytelling and advocacy, Angeline calls for a deeper commitment to women-centered healthcare, early detection, and research that finally takes women\u2019s bodies seriously<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                            <div class='etn-schedule-speaker'>\n                                                                                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/angeline-malik\/' aria-label=\"Angeline Malik\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Angeline-Malik.png\" alt=\"Angeline Malik\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Angeline Malik<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/mariyam-nawaz\/' aria-label=\"Mariyam Nawaz\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Mariyam-Nawaz.png\" alt=\"Mariyam Nawaz\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Mariyam Nawaz<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                        <div class='etn-single-schedule-item etn-schedule-grid-item'>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-info'>\n                                                                            <span class='etn-schedule-time'> 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm <\/span>\n                                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-location'>\n                                        <i class='etn-icon etn-location'><\/i>Princess Room                                        <\/span>\n                                                                        <\/div>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-content'>\n                                    <h4 class='etn-title'>Women as Stewards of Nature: Leadership and the Feminine Divine (WWf)<\/h4>\n                                    <p><p class=\"event-type\">Baithak<p>\n\nThis session explores women as natural stewards and leaders, \"friends of nature\", whose intimate relationships with land, water, wildlife, and culture are essential to keeping ecosystems alive. Across mountains, rivers, forests, plains, and coasts, women act as the eyes and ears on the ground, protecting biodiversity through care, knowledge, and courage.\n\nFrom mountain landscapes where Wildlife Sheroes safeguard leopards, medicinal plants, and fragile ecosystems, the baithak examines how women-led conservation and monitoring emerge from lived connection rather than distant management. These women embody a mountain consciousness, observant and resilient, offering a distinctly feminine lens to conservation.\n\nThe session journeys into stories and symbols, where a woman transforms into a dolphin to protect the river, echoing programmes such as sakhi, and reflecting the mystic bond between the feminine and water. The dolphin, often imagined as a female guardian, becomes a symbol of fluid intelligence, protection, and kinship with rivers. In agricultural plains, women steward the land from sowing to harvest, especially in cash-crop landscapes like cotton. They serve as vital connectors between nature, livelihoods, and sustainability, holding ecological knowledge that bridges soil health, water use, and community well-being.\n\nWe also explore forests and mangroves, including sacred landscapes such as Karoonjhar, where the divine feminine is inseparable from nature, and regions that serve as strongholds for species like vultures. Across traditions and local folklore, women, species, and ecosystems intertwine, each reflecting and sustaining the other through story, ritual, and belief.\n\nFinally, the session would acknowledge the vulnerabilities of women, species, and ecosystems alike, highlighting how environmental degradation, climate change, and social inequities threaten these relationships, while also revealing women\u2019s leadership as a powerful pathway toward resilience and regeneration.<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div

It will explore whether contemporary AI and algorithmic technologies are being developed with gender sensitivity, or whether they continue to reproduce and reinforce structural biases and exclusions.\n\nThe panel also highlights the urgent need for more women at the forefront of the AI and technology industry, emphasizing that inclusive design, ethical innovation, and algorithmic justice are not possible without women\u2019s active participation in AI development, policy-making, research, and leadership. By centering women\u2019s voices, experiences, and expertise, the discussion aims to promote fairer, more accountable, and socially responsible AI systems.<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                            <div class='etn-schedule-speaker'>\n                                                                                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/azima-dhanjee\/' aria-label=\"Azima Dhanjee\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Azima-Dhanjee.png\" alt=\"Azima Dhanjee\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Azima Dhanjee<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/muzhira-amin\/' aria-label=\"Muzhira Amin\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Untitled-design-1.png\" alt=\"Muzhira Amin\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Muzhira Amin<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/azra-naseem\/' aria-label=\"Azra Naseem\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Untitled-design-6-1.png\" alt=\"Azra Naseem\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Azra Naseem<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/berjees-sheikh\/' aria-label=\"Berjees sheikh\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Untitled-design-7-1.png\" alt=\"Berjees sheikh\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Berjees sheikh<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                        <div class='etn-single-schedule-item etn-schedule-grid-item'>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-info'>\n                                                                            <span class='etn-schedule-time'> 4:00 pm -

Her practice deals with uncovering historiographical power structures portrayed through materials which explore geographical influences, religious iconography and archival methods. She holds a BFA from the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture (IVS) and an MA from Chelsea College of Arts at the University of the Arts London (UAL), where she was awarded the UAL Postgraduate International Scholarship. Veera produced a body of documentation capturing the erasure of island life and coastal heritage within the Indus Delta for the Mead Fellowship and her site-specific investigations coexist alongside literary and community-based archives from public and private collections which examine the Zoroastrian diaspora. Veera is also the co-director of the Urban Repository Archive (URA) housed within the Department of Fine Art (IVS), which explores how student-lead research responds to the changing landscape of Karachi.\n\n\nThe session will highlight how Zoroastrian and Parsi women in Karachi have shaped traditions of care, philanthropy, and education within the city. Drawing on photographs, newsletters, and private family archives, the talk traces women\u2019s roles in healthcare, schooling, research, and community organisations, past and present. It will also explore why acknowledging and archiving these histories is urgent, and what is at risk of being lost if these stories are not preserved.\n\nThis talk explores physical archives that highlight Parsi-led work in Karachi, with a focus on the community's women in the early twentieth century, a time when photography and formal documentation were limited. The images bring to the forefront how women in Karachi today continue traditions of care, research, and philanthropy through organisations such as the Karachi Zarthoshti Banu Mandal and Mama Parsi High School, as well as through materials preserved at the Dastur Dr Dhalla Library and Y.M.Z.A.

class=\"event-type\">Interactive<p>\n\nRomantic Provocations is a roaming, shape-shifting exhibition that blurs the borders between art, science, politics, and public imagination. Part laboratory, part collective pause, it invites visitors into a living system where romance becomes method and friction becomes fuel. Across eight provocations, from algorithmic desire to intimacy by design, artists, scientists, and designers unsettle familiar narratives and open new ones. Multiple storylines unfold at once. Conversations remain porous. Ideas migrate across cities and disciplines, gathering new meaning as they travel and it all begins at WOW in Karachi. Visitors don\u2019t simply observe; they participate in a slow, evolving negotiation of belief, desire, care, and disobedience. The result is a living archive of contradictions, gestures, and connections: a collective attempt to build worlds where love is disruptive, ambiguity is defended, and complexity is a shared

Inspired by practices rooted in care, imagination, and integrity, this session invites participants to explore sustainable creativity through tactile, zero-waste methods. Together, participants will experiment with food-waste dyes, such as the rich hues of onion skin, while learning about ancient mordants and time-honoured techniques. We\u2019ll also dive into leaf tapping and collaborative tapestry-making, using found foliage and reclaimed textiles to create new stories from what already exists.\n\nThis is a truly regenerative experience: zero kilometre, zero waste, and full of meaning. Participants are encouraged to bring an old dupatta, kameez, t-shirt, or any beloved piece in need of revival. For walk-ins, a small collection of factory excess or discarded fabric will be available so no one is left out.\n\nJoin Leaf Lab to reconnect with nature, reimagine the materials we already have, and rediscover the quiet magic of sustainable craft.<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                            <div class='etn-schedule-speaker'>\n                                                                                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/fatima-najm\/' aria-label=\"Fatima Najm\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Untitled-design-16-1.png\" alt=\"Fatima Najm\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Fatima Najm<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                        <div class='etn-single-schedule-item etn-schedule-grid-item'>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-info'>\n                                                                            <span class='etn-schedule-time'> 11:00 am - 9:00 pm <\/span>\n                                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-location'>\n                                        <i class='etn-icon etn-location'><\/i>Marketplace                                        <\/span>\n                                                                        <\/div>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-content'>\n                                    <h4 class='etn-title'>WOW CAST<\/h4>\n                                    <p><p class=\"event-type\">Interactive<p>\n\nStep inside the podcast playground!

We will be  re imagining our world centered on a collective art activity where participants co-create a global map, shifting its representation from political borders and national names to a living, integrated system of rivers, birds, plants, and insects.It will generate a powerful visual statement on ecological literacy and the disconnectedness of all life. This will be a two-layered installation, where the underlying layer represents regional carbon emission percentages, physically linking ecological richness with global climate accountability and human impact. The final piece will be a powerful testament to collective environmental consciousness, created by hundreds of hands, demonstrating that Earth is a shared ecosystem, not a collection of independent countries. <\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                                <div class='etn-schedule-right-content'>\n                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                            <div class='etn-schedule-speaker'>\n                                                                                                        <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/aliza-khalid\/' aria-label=\"Aliza Khalid\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Aliza-Khalid.png\" alt=\"Aliza Khalid\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Aliza Khalid<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/salman-tahir\/' aria-label=\"Salman Tahir\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Salman-Tahir.png\" alt=\"Salman Tahir\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Salman Tahir<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class='etn-schedule-single-speaker'>\n                                                                <a href='https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/author\/komal-farrukh\/' aria-label=\"Komal Farrukh\">\n                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wowpakistan.pk\/wow2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Komal-Farrukh.png\" alt=\"Komal Farrukh\">\n                                                                                                                                    <\/a>\n                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-speaker-title'>Komal Farrukh<\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                        <div class='etn-single-schedule-item etn-schedule-grid-item'>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-info'>\n                                                                            <span class='etn-schedule-time'> 11:00 am - 9:00 pm <\/span>\n                                                                                <span class='etn-schedule-location'>\n                                        <i class='etn-icon etn-location'><\/i>Main Garden Near Seaside                                        <\/span>\n                                                                        <\/div>\n                                <div class='etn-schedule-content'>\n                                    <h4 class='etn-title'>Infinity and Beyond<\/h4>\n                                    <p><p class=\"event-type\">Interactive<p>\n\nThe Karachi Astronomers Society aims to engage and educate festival-goers about the wonders of space and astronomy, offering hands-on experiences through high-quality telescopes.

opens the door. \n\n There are no right or wrong builds here; fun is the only goal.
