The interplay between education and gendered social norms in Pakistan.
Paper long abstract:
This paper identifies the interplay between education and gendered social norms in Pakistan. Conducted with The Citizen’s Foundation, this study set in urban Pakistan shares evidence regarding the extent to which education can disrupt reproductions of negative social norms and support shifts in positive social norms supporting goals of social justice. It presents insights from interviews with young men and women about how education has shaped their lives and helped or hindered their agency to achieve their goals.
