Abstract
There are several areas where development efforts may further Pakistan’s progress toward gender equality and women’s empowerment. This publication focuses on selected key sectors of ADB’s current operations in Pakistan: energy, transport, urban and rural development, social protection, and finance while drawing attention to other equally important thematic areas such as education, population, health and nutrition, and reconstruction in post conflict and natural disaster situations. In this publication, sector-specific gender issues, lessons learned from selected development assistance projects, and entry points or practical tips for gender mainstreaming through policy and program development, capacity building, and research are presented for guidance of sector experts who aim to realize gender inclusive outcomes.
