Dr maria sultan director general south asian strategic stability institute pakistan
The South Asian Strategic Stability Institute is a research institute located in London. It was founded with the premise of promoting peace and stability in South Asia. The institute is focused on promoting peace in south Asia particularly Pak-India relations. It attracts fresh universities graduates. The South Asian Strategic Stability Institute was previously a research department within the Department of Peace Studies at the University of Bradford. The South Asian Strategic Stability Unit (SASSU) was established in February 2004 as a specialist research Unit within the Bradford Disarmament Research Centre with a grant from Pakistan’s National University of Science and Technology.
In February 2004 the decision was made to take SASSU out of the academic environment and convert it into an "independent entity". Former Deputy Director Dr. Maria Sultan took over as Director-General and Nick Robson as Chief Coordinator. Sultan has been affiliated with the Government of Pakistan, specifically serving as civilian defence strategist at the Pakistan Ministry of Defence.
SASSI has been headquartered in the Aldgate district of London since 2006. In November 2006 SASSI hosted its first "international conference" in Bruxelles entitled ‘Strengthened Export Controls: Pakistan’s Export Control Experience Current and Future Challenges and Options‘.
In 2008 SASSI opened a subsidiary office in Islamabad, Pakistan.
