women's empowerment

The stories of women and girls matter

Gender based violence is a multi-faceted issue and can encompass physical, sexual, economic, cultural and emotional mistreatment based on a person’s gender.

To really address the issue of gender-based violence, we need to work with individuals, families, communities and societies to change societal norms and envision a different future.

Of spectacles, discrimination, women and empowerment

Reflecting on famous Pakistanis of history, HCR finds common purpose with those who promoted the potential of human empowerment. At the heart of it, that is all we do in the marginalised communities we partner with. We encourage strategies that neither overlook nor discriminate against the powerless, but create potential for their empowerment.
