"The British media reflects a relatively negative view of Pakistan," says Channel 4 News presenter Jon Snow, "partly because of the Afghan war and partly because of racial prejudice."
But he adds: "I don't think it is all negative... to be honest, I'd have said the greatest criticism of news coverage of Pakistan is that there isn't enough."
He also believes there has been a long history of prejudice against Pakistani immigrants but less so than was once the case.
Snow was talking to Suzanne Wakefield of London Metropolitan university in a video than can be found here on the RSA Pakistan Calling site.
The site also support young journalists and film makers in Pakistan, via partnerships with institutions such as Karachi university.
One example, I am Agha, about a child who collects garbage, moved World Bank blogger Susan Moeller to call it "a powerful example of how artists, activists and academics can both inform their audiences and prompt them to question their habitual ways of looking at the world."
Why not take a look at the site yourself. It may make you think differently about Pakistan.
