This report delves into the critical issue of low female participation in Pakistani schools, examining various interconnected factors that contribute to this challenge. The study highlights that girls' education is a fundamental right and an essential tool for women empowerment, yet socio-cultural barriers, poverty, lack of investment, and insecurity significantly impede girls' access to education. The report investigates the lack of government investment in schools, high education costs, poor quality of education, and the absence of motivation as major contributing factors. It further explores the impact of poor social and cultural norms, including early marriage, and the pervasive insecurity caused by sexual harassment, violence, and poverty, which collectively keep girls away from schools. The research underscores the need for strategic educational plans and interventions to address these problems, ensuring girls' access to quality education and empowering them to achieve their full potential.
