The Caretaker Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government, along with its subsidiary departments including Local Government, Social Welfare, Plan-ning and Development (P&D), and the Commission on the Status of Women with the support of Canada concluded a four-year project here at a local hotel on Tuesday to empower women in the province.

The primary objective of this project, undertaken in collaboration with Global Affairs Canada through Cowater International, was to integrate women into social, economic, and political spheres, ensuring their participation in policymaking, governance, and the enforcement of laws and policies related to women’s rights.

During the concluding conference, Justice (Retired) Irshad Qaisar, Caretaker Minister for Social Welfare, highlighted that over 55 percent of Pakistan’s population comprises women, yet a significant number of them struggle to earn a livelihood for themselves and their families.

She said that the government was committed to empowering women and addressing unemployment issues.
She stressed that providing basic amenities to the public is the state’s responsibility and solid measures are being taken in this regard.
