| Summary: | This policy note was prepared in
parallel to the report Pakistan at 100 – Shaping the Future.
The report Pakistan at 100 discusses options to accelerate
and sustain growth in Pakistan so that the country becomes
an upper middle-income country when it turns 100 years old
in 2047. This policy note discusses inequality of
opportunities women face in Pakistan. Excluding women from
the labor force means that a large share of Pakistan’s
greatest asset, its population, is being wasted. |
