Program Title: WINGS #21-09 Pakistan Women Advance
Description: In Parliament, in academics, in journalism, and elsewhere, Pakistani women now abound. In some parts of Pakistan, women are still inhibited by tribal taboos, but the problem is being worked on by the Aurat Foundation, and much has changed for this generation in both rural and urban areas.

Host(s): Masum Moyama, curator, Women, Power and Politics, International Museum of Women
Featured Speakers/Guests: Dr. Masuma Hasan was Pakistan's first woman Ph.D. and first woman Federal Secretary of Pakistan.
