Gender Equality Need For Developing Nations Including Pakistan

    World is undergoing dazzling changes owing to human's triumph of scientific advancement. But the change in inequality being faced by women, almost half of homo-sapiens population is far from abandoning this world. The pace in bridging this gap between men and women is too slow to accomplish the task of gender equality; it will take decades and centuries. Although various steps has been taken and are being adopted across the globe yet gender discrimination of women is appalling in statistics e.g. in Baluchistan; a province of Pakistan literacy rate for girls is only 27%. Women in no way different or weak from men; she can play significant role in sociopolitical and economic contribution to the society, state or world. However, if appropriate steps are taken to provide due economic share in resources and expanded education program with legislative protection, and support; women better equipped to share the burden of poverty and luxury of scientific contribution.
