Abstract: | “While reflecting upon Aurat Foundation’s struggle for socio-political and economic change for women’s empowerment during January 2011 and June 2012, it would be prudent to refer to the overall security situation of the country under which human rights activists have been working. Although the security situation improved slightly in the latter half of the year, it remained precarious in several respects in many parts of the country. Violence increased in the provinces of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan and FATA region. The heat of sectarian violence enveloped the larger areas of Balochistan and Northern areas. Karachi witnessed incidents of worst target killings. Terrorism and sectarian violence claimed lives of several people including some renowned figures in politics and civil society as well as in the field of education, sports and media.” “Aurat Foundation is conscious of the impact on governance brought about by the 18th Amendment to the 1973 Constitution and, as the report shows, it is a measure of its resilience that it has quickly adjusted and made operational changes.” |
