Dear Sir,
While correctly condemning the cold blooded murders in in strongest terms in Kohistan , you had bracketed Shias as minorities - why? is this a deliberate attempt? they are part and parcel of the Muslim Ummah?!   - . Next, u have advised the affected party to go seek the international fora like the Baluchi Nationalists.      Sir I am not sure whether this advice is from a sane and well informed person or from the one who wants to give it a Bizzarie touch and throws some crumbs to earn cheap popularity.  If the Baluchis have gone to the international levels viz the alleged crimes of the  ISI - though hard to believe due various logical reasons - then why do u  not advocate those Settlers (Basically Urdu and Punjabi Speaking) whose loved one's have in thousands been murdered in Baluchistan or pushed back into the remaining provinces . their girls raped and many of them butchered in cold blood??
Are u the one who gives fatwas while sitting in the comfort of your drawing rooms like Mr Hamid Mir of GEO  or are u like the typical shadow under the burning lamp?? Unfortunately, I smell the tone and tenor of the moron Asma Jahangir in ur write up

UNIDO to support, participate in Islamabad Expo: Bakhait

Female creative workers underpaid, under-represented: Samina Fazil

Government-backed initiatives can ensure diversity, wider female representation

 

Dated: March 01

 

Islamabad: Country Chief of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) Ms. Shadia Yousuf Bakhait on Thursday said Pakistan women possess great creative skills that need to be polished.

 

UNIDO will continue to contribute to the creative industry of Pakistan by organizing training workshops, seminars and events for the women entrepreneurs, she said. 

 

Bakhait said that we will support Islamabad Expo 2012 being organised by Islamabad Women's Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IWCCI) titled "Women in Creative Industry."

 

The expo reinforces the idea of highlighting all the women adding great value to this critical sector, she added.

 

We will keep on designing new programmes for women through close cooperation with the IWCCI and other partners to ensure their capacity building and proper visibility, said National Programme Coordinator UNIDO, Shahina Waheed.

 

Pervain Khan, Head of Business Development, FWBL said, "We are pinning high hopes in the mega event in which women from across Pakistan as well as Saarc countries are participating."

 

At the occasion, Samina Fazil said that female creative artisans as well as workers are underpaid and under-represented; they need more encouragement, collaboration, networking, promotion and guidance.

 

Women are facing imbalances including substantially lower returns than men do, she said.

 

Pakistani creative industry is lagging behind other sectors in the fight for gender equality; many leading institutions are suffering from a dearth of women in high-ranking positions, she observed.

 

Samina Fazil noted that women leaders have more consultative and nurturing approach but not enough of them made it to the top in the creative industry because of the lack of a welcoming environment.

 

She called for more Government-backed initiatives to ensure diversity and removal of barriers in different sectors for wider female representation.

The corrupt government of GB is also responsible for the incident which has been
ignoring the tensions and killings in the area since three years. 
Presently army has control of most of the Gilgit city, some areas controlled by Shias while Sunnis 
are fortifying positions in the remote areas. 
Kohistan was selected for the crime as the murderers would get logestic support there 
as the local population was used by State for sectrian crimes in past.

Dear Media Colleagues

On the occasion of today's launch of the State of the World's Children 2012 Report: Children in the Urban World , UNICEF would like to highlight the opportunities and challenges facing children living in Pakistan's urban environments.

Your cooperation for the placement of the press release would be highly appreciated. (please see below and attached)

For more information and media assistance, please contact :


A. Sami Malik, Communication Specialist, Mob: 0300-855-6654, Email asmalik@unicef.org
(See attached file: UNICEF SOWC 2012 Press release for Pakistan version - 28 February 2012.doc)


UNICEF PRESS RELEASE

Increasing urbanization creates challenges and opportunities for children in Pakistan

ISLAMABAD, 28 February 2012 -- A new global UNICEF report highlights the challenges that face many children living in cities and towns around the world, and points to examples of good practice that can improve children's well-being.

The UNICEF report, "State of the World's Children 2012: Children in the Urban World", notes that already half of all people – including more than one billion children – live in urban areas, with the numbers of urban dwellers steadily growing.

Pakistan has 37 per cent of its population living in urban areas. By 2025, over half of Pakistan's population will live in cities; nine cities already have more than a million people. The transition to a largely urban population and the emergence of mega-urban regions is viewed as an engine of growth in the Government's Framework for Economic Growth.

Equitable access to quality basic social services, including health, nutrition, water, sanitation, education and protection is constrained by multiple levels of deprivation and exclusion. "The challenge is to proactively address the many dimensions of deprivation and exclusion by ensuring equity in the provision of basic social services and social protection," said UNICEF Pakistan Representative Dan Rohrmann. "While continuing to serve poor rural children, UNICEF Pakistan also is planning to greatly increase its programming for children in the poorest urban neighbourhoods."

As an example, in 2009, the average number of years of schooling for children was 5.7 years, however the disparity between the poorest 15 per cent of the population and the highest 15 per cent was between 2.41 and 8.95 years across different provinces. Girls living in urban areas in the highest income group received an average of 9.39 years of schooling compared with 1.01 years for rural girls in the lowest income group.

Children from disadvantaged backgrounds who live in urban areas face a host of challenges that reduce their chance to reach full potential in a productive adult work force. These challenges include low levels of birth registration, inadequate access to sanitation and safe water services, education and health services.

The State of the World's Children (SOWC) 2012 Report includes examples of good practices from around the world spanning service delivery, social protection, and safe and inclusive environments for children in urban areas. It also outlines key steps for an equitable development approach for reaching the poorest children in urban areas.

At the global level, UNICEF and the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) have worked together for 15 years on the Child-Friendly Cities Initiative, building partnerships with governments and civil society to put children at the centre of the urban agenda and to provide services and create protected areas so children can have the safer and healthier childhoods they deserve. In Pakistan, UN-Habitat and UNICEF have been working together to scale up sanitation for the poorest families.

The full SOWC 2012 report may be downloaded from http://www.unicef.org/sowc2012/.

About UNICEF
UNICEF is on the ground in over 150 countries and territories to help children survive and thrive, from early childhood through adolescence. In Pakistan, it works with the federal and provincial, NGOs and other partners to support child health and nutrition, good water and sanitation, quality basic education for all boys and girls, and the protection of children from violence, exploitation, and AIDS. It has provided vital relief and reconstruction support to help individuals rebuild their lives after emergencies, such as the 2010 monsoon floods and the October 2005 earthquake. UNICEF is funded entirely by the voluntary contributions of individuals, businesses, foundations and governments.
