Empowering women

Women comprise half of the total population of Pakistan. Despite that, they are provided a limited role in boosting the economy of the country. However, there are multiple obvious reasons for women not being too empowered in Pakistan – like illiteracy, gender discrimination,cultural violence and ineffective constitutional rights for women's empowerment.Pakistan cannot be civilized, developed and advanced unless it's women are empowered.
