Women Enterpreneurship in Pakistan

According to Staticians, 59.8% of Pakistan's population consists of 15-64 years of men and women, while having a median age of 21.2, out of which 50,807,705 are women. In other words it can be said that 28.6 % of our population is based on such women who can actively participate in country's economy either directly or indirectly. But unfortunately, Pakistani people, in the state of dilemma that whether women should actively participate in our economy or not due to many so-called taboos, as a result this segment of population remained largely inactive.

Due to recent economic recession, it is now felt hard that women should be trained in technical and financial skills through proper channels, in order to enhance their productivity regarding their conventional skills. This is the topic discussed in below videos which I produced for Apna News in program Maeshat Nama, the participants are, Dr. Shela Javed Akram,President of Central and North Women Chamber of Commerce & Industry and Miss Maimoona Sattar, Project Manager of Women Business Center, while the show is modrated by Syed Azhar Bukhari.
