    Pakistan Country Gender Assessment: Volume 1 of 2: Overall Gender Analysis

    Australia, Government of; Canada, Government of | June 2016
    Abstract
    The situation of women in Pakistan has improved over the last 2 decades. Human capital investments resulted in narrowing gender disparities in health and education access, as well as economic and political participation. Still, wide gender gaps remain within the context of persistent poverty and gender-biased cultural norms. This publication gives a broad analysis of the women’s situation, describes the institutional efforts made toward closing gender gaps, and identifies enhancements to development programming assistance that could usher in gender equality.
