Panos-Himal Roundtables

Panos South Asia, in association with Himal Southasian, has by now held seven India-Pakistan 'gatekeepers' retreats' since May 2002, when the first get-together was organised near Kathmandu. These retreats, which bring together senior journalists and experts with in-depth knowledge of the bilateral processes, spring from the faith that in a world of changing equations and moods, rapprochement  between New Delhi and Islamabad is a key factor for a safe and prosperous Southasia. All seven retreats have been moderated by Kanak Mani Dixit, editor of Himal. The full transcripts are below.
