Assistant Professor and Program Coordinator for the Master of Art Education at BNU, Ms. Aatiqa Sheikh, presented her paper at the International Lyallpur History Conference 2024, held in Faisalabad on August 26th and 27th. The event was organized in collaboration with the Lyallpur Young Historians Club and the Lyallpur Literary Council.
Ms. Sheikh’s paper, titled “Transition in Communal Association in Old Neighbourhood(s) of Lyallpur: A Sociolinguistic Analysis Through Spatial Memory,” was featured in the session "Heritage and Urban Regeneration: Exploring Architectural Narratives in Lyallpur." Her research delved into the changing dynamics of communal associations in Lyallpur's historic neighborhoods, employing the lenses of sociolinguistics and spatial memory. The study highlighted how intergenerational shifts in language and spatial awareness have shaped communal interactions in Lyallpur over time. By exploring these evolving relationships, Ms. Sheikh’s work offered valuable insights into how the city’s historical and linguistic heritage informs its present-day social fabric.
