Student’s Project: Eminent Person

I have chosen to study the Aga Khan IV for my Eminent Person Project. For those of you who don’t know who He is, here is some information on what He has done to become a notable worthy person. The Aga Khan is the religious leader, or Imam, of the Shia Ismaili Muslims. He is the 49th Imam, and the successor of his grandfather Sir Sultan Muhammad Shah Aga Khan (pbuh).

Some of the most commonly known works of this incredible man include founding organizations such as the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN), Focus Humanitarian Assistance, and the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF). These are all non-profitable organizations created to better the quality of life of others around the world. Some of the projects in Canada that he has started include the Aga Khan Museum, and the Global Center for Pluralism.
