WOMEN'S WORTH

Women’s Worth is committed to raising awareness of women’s challenges and issues in Pakistan, especially focusing on the Tribal Women. We make a difference by providing opportunities to enrich and empower their lives.

“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.” Proverbs 31:8

Miman ministers to Bheel women and children teaching basic hygiene and healthcare. Miman was recognized for efforts in educating Bheel women and children about basic hygiene, teaching young women pre/postnatal care. She received an International award on Women’s Day for her service and commitment by the Education Department of Rahim Yar Khan city. Miman reaches out to women and children with basic medical care/first aid, as well as sharing the word. She has worked with us since 2009. We have seen tremendous response after adding Miman to our staff. We have provided sewing machines and sewing training to several Bheel women over the years. Currently we have 6 Sewing Centers across Southern Punjab among the Bheel villages.

We are now focusing our attention on the Christian Community in Pakistan by partnering with Nosheen Ashir, who is providing Beauty and wellness training in Bahawalpur.  

In Pakistan, lack of quality education is a pressing social issue, even more so for women and especially those of Christian community. In the predominantly male society, skilled training has shown to give women the confidence and tools by which they can create their own production market for sale and profit. This generates the much needed opportunity of financial independence otherwise not accessible to them. Our culture in Pakistan does not permit the majority of women to seek employment outside the home. This makes Vocational Training such as Sewing and Beauty training a perfect opportunity for them to run a business out of their home to meet the community’s needs.
