Every Pakistani knows
that good intentions alone are not enough to empower women. And it's hard to
believe that people who talk about women's empowerment only to the extent of
the media have no say in their practical lives.
Women's empowerment is
essential for the social development and well-being of any country. Women play
the most important role in the economy and food production. In every age, women
have played a central role in ensuring the stability, development and long-term
prosperity of nations. Women's abilities and skills have not been fully
utilized to a large extent. The more educated a woman is, the more likely she
is to have economic opportunities. Women's empowerment is very important for
the development of society, while women's economic empowerment is essential for
gender equality. It is important that the decision-making process and access to
resources are not hampered so that men and women can have an equal share in a
productive life.
Therefore, it is
important for each of the women to play their role independently, to influence
the decision-making process, to have their say, to vote and to take action
without veto or concealment.
Furthermore, it is
important that they have the opportunity to access and manage their material
and economic resources and be free from verbal, physical, ideological or
psychological in all its manifestations. They also have all kinds of
information and that justice affects them in the same way as men
The power to make
important decisions about one's personal development is called women's
autonomy. It gives women freedom in every aspect of life, including freedom to
make the right decisions regardless of mental, intellectual or social barriers.
The goal of women's empowerment is to create equality in the social system so
that men and women are equal in every field. Women play a key role in
enlightening any country on a bright future and helping society and the family
prosper. In ancient times women were not treated equally as men. But for any
country today, the development of women means that they have equal status with
men.
Autonomy empowers
women to make decisions not only for personal but also for social development.
It encourages women to stand on their own two feet, to be free, dignified and
self-reliant, to have the confidence to face all kinds of difficult situations and
to engage in various socio-political development activities. To participate in
In the old days, women were abused at the hands of family and society. They
were not educated and confined to household chores. They were completely
unaware of their rights. Women make up almost half of the country's population,
so the autonomy of that half of the population is essential for the country's
development.
In modern times, when
it comes to gender discrimination and gender equality, it is usually a matter
of empowering women financially. In the same way, a woman is created with the
same abilities. Education begins with the fact that just as a man has the right
and ability to get an education, so the real owner has given a woman the
ability and right to be educated. Get educated, and it is appropriate to start
with the idea that both men and women should be educated, because in the case
of a family, both have a great responsibility to educate their children.
It is a fact that we
say that behind every successful man there is a woman's hand. In contrast,
women have been seen marching for their rights. Women are considered weak in
this country, which does not need powers. This can be gauged from the fact that
women are being subjected to violence in big cities like Lahore, so think how
high the rate of violence will be in small areas.
The woman was always
oppressed, buried before she was born. No other religion has given women as
much respect and authority as Islam has given them because there is no soul
other than Adam and Eve who is not born without a mother. There is also a woman
who gives birth to men and the same woman seems to be asking for authority from
men, why?
Today, even in the
21st century, women are not empowered, and this issue is not even discussed in
the backward areas. Even today, 72% of girls continue to be victims of violence
and coercion. A long time, women are laggged behind in the race for development
and their problems are increasing instead of decreasing. Now either we become
silent spectators, treating women as second-class citizens and ignoring them
and their problems and needs that we have been doing, or we give this
population their own development and this nation. Participate in the
development process.
The government should
make laws that empower women, make women equal participants in every class.
Laws should be made for women to speak out against oppression, to bring them to
justice against all forms of violence, so that women who are victims of
oppression can speak up for their rights.
There are many ways to
empower women. Individuals and governments must have to work together to make
it possible. Girls should be educated so that women can read and write and
improve their lives. Women should have equal opportunities in all walks of life
irrespective of their gender. In addition, they should be paid the same as men
for every job.
Another important step
in empowering women is to end child marriage, which is common in rural areas.
Programs should be launched to enable women to defend themselves in the event
of any financial crisis. The most important thing is to take steps to eradicate
the scourge of divorce and abuse or abuse. Many women endure every kind of
oppression to save their relationship out of fear of society. Parents should
tell their daughters during their training that it is better to come home with
a divorce than to come in the form of a corpse.
Women's sovereignty
will be truly realized when society's attitudes towards women change, they will
be treated with dignity, respect, and justice in all their dealings. Work will
be done equally.
