The project comprises multiple components designed to strengthen institutional capacity, promote gender equality, and support working women.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>A key feature of the proposal is the establishment of daycare centres in ICT, AJK and GB with an estimated allocation of around Rs 570 million. The initiative is intended to provide safe childcare facilities, particularly for working women in public-sector institutions, and to help improve female participation in the workforce. The document indicates that this component had already received approval from the Departmental Development Working Party (DDWP) in April 2025.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Another major component of the umbrella project is the establishment of the Federal Institute of Human Rights (FIHR), for which approximately Rs 1.5 billion has been proposed. The institute is envisioned as a national platform for research, training, and policy development in the human rights sector. It will focus on organising training programmes, seminars, and conferences, while also supporting evidence-based policymaking and institutional coordination.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In addition, the project includes a Gender Equality and Women Empowerment Programme with an estimated allocation of around Rs 800 million. This component aims to promote women\u2019s rights awareness, strengthen gender-responsive policies, and enhance institutional mechanisms for the protection and empowerment of women. It also seeks to encourage community-level engagement on gender issues.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Once approved, the initiative will play a significant role in strengthening Pakistan\u2019s human rights framework while addressing structural barriers faced by women, particularly through practical interventions such as accessible childcare facilities.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"text-justify mb-2\" >ISLAMABAD, Apr 13 (ABC): The Ministry of Human Rights has proposed the establishment of daycare centres in Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT), Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) as part of a broader Rs2.87 billion project aimed at promoting human rights and women\u2019s development.
