British Council aims to build long-term relationships between the UK and Pakistan through increased mutual collaboration through its creative arts programme based on the wealth of heritage and skills in Pakistan. The programme showcases Pakistan and UK’s creative industries and commercial arts by exploring the artistic mediums of film, music, creative writing, literature, visual arts and design.
The Karachi Literature Festival is a reflection of Pakistan’s historical roots as expressed in a multiplicity of languages and in various forms of writing. The Festival brings together international & Pakistani authors and performing artists to create an intellectual space in which the diversity and pluralism in Pakistan’s society and that expressed by authors from traditions beyond Pakistan’s borders can be freely accessible to people in an open and participatory manner.
The British Council is working with over 50 countries worldwide to coordinate an exciting range of arts activities celebrating the bicentenary of the UK's most prolific and influential novelists, Charles Dickens.
