Women in Afghanistan
Forty years of wars, recurrent natural disasters, and increasing poverty have devastated the people of Afghanistan with women and children disproportionately impacted. Afghans are dealing with a crippled economy with widespread poverty and joblessness. Moreover, women face restrictions with respect to mobility, education, and working.
Women in Pakistan
Many women in Pakistan encounter domestic violence, workplace sexual harassment, and, in some cases, honor killings. Pakistan is ranked the sixth most dangerous country in the world for women by Thomson Reuters. Due to persistently high inflation in Pakistan, women without family support and credentials turn to prostitution for survival.
