Pakistan - Land Rights for Muslim Women:

 

Review of Law and Policy - 2008 Report 

 

"Women's land ownership and control have important connections with their empowerment in Pakistan's agricultural context. However, the link between these has largely remained unexplored, and there has been negligible research to determine how many women own or control land in Pakistan. SDPI carried out a multiple part research to fill this knowledge gap and to examine the causality behind women's land ownership and empowerment.....The research spans rural areas across all four provinces of Pakistan, drawing on national laws, existing policies, literature review, and field work."
