Women’s strength

Empowering women is essential for communal and economic development in every society. The country needs women’s contribution to increase the national economy. Women in Pakistan can bring social and economic development, if the government and provides them equal rights. Women face many hindrances because of our male-dominant society.

According to some media reports, in our country; women are involved in unpaid work ten times more than men. In rural areas there are many women who are working in agriculture and industrial sectors but did not get recognition of their work. We need a composed educational environment that provides equal rights and opportunities to women. This way they can play a big role in contributing to the nation’s economy.
