On Saturday, the Sindh Women Lawyers Alliance hosted an impactful event at the Karachi Press Club to mark the second Sindhi Naari Dihaaro or Sindhi Women’s Day.

Themed “Resources, Extremism, and Resistance,” the event brought together speakers, activists, and local artists to address critical social issues affecting women in Sindh.

The rise of extremism sparked intense discussion. Speakers emphasized its far-reaching impact on society as a whole, beyond individual families. They called for united efforts—from legislatures to schools—to combat radical ideologies and foster harmony.

Legal protections for women took centre stage. Speakers stressed that social empowerment hinges on economic opportunities and enforceable laws. They urged stronger implementation to safeguard women’s rights across the province.

Shazia Nizamani, Chairperson of the Sindh Women Lawyers Alliance, shed light on women’s struggles. She shared sobering data: 379 women were killed in honour-related crimes in Sindh, with countless more facing domestic violence and harassment. Her address underscored the urgent need for change.

Dr. Shireen Narejo, a respected educationist and civil servant, expressed alarm at extremism’s spread. She called on policymakers to shield youth from radical influences and emphasize education’s role in prevention.

PPP MPA Syeda Yasmin Shah praised male lawmakers’ support for women’s issues but pushed for broader societal shifts. She encouraged men to champion respect and equality.

Dr. Sidra Ahmed recounted the 2010 floods’ devastating toll. Thousands of displaced families, including pregnant women, lacked hospital access during childbirth. She highlighted healthcare gaps that continue to affect Sindh’s women.

Activist Marvi Kalhoro addressed violence against women, while survivor Parh Ejaz moved the audience with her story of overcoming domestic abuse. Panel discussions delved into these challenges, offering solutions and hope.
