While the National Commission on the Status of Women works toward policy change, true empowerment is often stifled by economic dependency. We must pivot from protection only narratives to economic participation strategies to see real change. ISLAMABAD POLICE DETAIN WOMEN DURING WOMEN’S MARCH, ENFORCING SECU...
