In a world filled with dreams of changing the entire globe, Awaid shares his profound insight that our pursuit of world-changing endeavors often encounters harsh realities as life, he emphasizes, is inherently realistic. He talks about how rather than aspiring to change holistically bigger things, one should embrace realistic expectations about change, hence changing the narrative of “change” itself. Awaid also talks about his journey as a Civil Servant, in the ravishing region of Kuchlak, whereby understanding the grassroot level needs he initiated the First Public Library of the area and a crucial water purification plant, hence transforming lives one step at a time.

As a graduate of Economics, from University of Cambridge Berkely one thing he learned was to thrive upon a vision to see the world as a realistic place. Therefore, in an already underprivileged region plagued by various problems, he discovered that impactful change begins with small, tangible actions.
