Question/Answers and Comments Session: This session was followed by question answers session, where Students raised questions from the respected guests.

A student named Jahanzed from Sociology Department; University of the Punjab asked a question. He said that now days there are many girls who wear sleeveless and clothes that are see through due to which boys look or stare them. He said don’t you think it’s a girl’s fault s she should not wear such clothes and rather she should cover her body while going outside. Ms. Naumana answered him and said that in foreign countries females wear sleeveless and even miniskirts and they go out confidently and fearlessly as the boys there do not look at them. She said we should not think that what others are doing or that the other person is wrong as we are accountable for our own mistakes only. So instead of focusing on what other person is doing we should simply amend ourselves. Whatever any girl wears it is her own choice and she has complete freedom for it. Then Mr. Zia mentioned a Hadith that ‘when a woman passes by you, lower your eyes’ and another Hadith that says ‘when a woman passes by you, lower your eyes and save your modesty’. He said save your Imaan and do not think negative about others whatever he/she wears. He further added that in the game of ‘Kabaddi’ which is played by men who wears the least clothes but I have never heard that a woman harassed any Kabaddi player. So he said we should not think like that and he said that our Imaan should not rely on just a girl’s dressing.

Afterwards another student named Yasir Ali from Gender Studies Department; University of the Punjab asked a question that the man is ordinate and the woman is his subordinate, so how they can be equal?

Ms. Naumana said that it is not correct and she recommended him to go to some ulma and asked that. She said both man and woman are equal so there should not be any kind of gender discrimination. However the responsibilities given to man and woman are different and they are defined but it does not mean that man is ordinate and woman is his subordinate.

Another student named MaryumZaheer from Institute of Business Administration; University of the Punjab appreciated Madadgaar for arranging the event. She said it was remarkable and so much informative. Moreover she suggested developing a setting that can address student issues regarding harassment. She said students especially girls face harassment even at universities so there should be a proper setup that can address such cases of female students.

Additional suggestion was given by another female student named RaisaZubair from Institute of Applied Psychology; University of the Punjab. She said that GBV is more common in rural areas so therefore we should develop a set at schools in rural areas and we should teach children that both man and woman are equal so that they can save our country from GBV in future.

It would be difficult to find one woman, whom at one time or the other in her lifetime had not been afraid merely because she was a woman. Those women who are particularly vulnerable to violence are those who live in extremely precarious conditions or who are discriminated against on the basis of race, language, ethnic group, culture, age, opinion, religion or membership in a minority group.

She highlighted the importance of sex education in our society to combat gender-based violence.

The world has been now shifted to an era where use of technology is at its peak. The estimated youth population of Pakistan is approximately 63% of the total population.

According to Madadgaar National Helpline’s data, 6218 women became the victims of violence in 2012 in Pakistan. Women being a vulnerable population, face a lot of violence and abuse. Some of the most significant reasons for its increase are rooted in feudal and tribal mindset of people and male dominance in society.

Children, young people and and around the world have been able to shape their own future thanks to assistance from child helplines. On 18 May Madadgaar National Helpline is marking “International Telecom & Child Helpline Day” for “Empowering youth on Gender-based Violence”.

Session No. 2 at Karachi University Sociology Department

Another workshop and theater was done at University of Karachi, Sociology Department on 21, April, 2014. A total of 138 students participated in the program. Students openly shared their views on various questions posed, and there was frequent disagreements between girls and boys in their responses such as whether a women should be dependant or not, and if women really are weak in their thinking abilities. Majority of students were boys who were of the view that the

67 session is important for them as most of the violence starts from the males end. When asked what piece of knowledge or wisdom you would impart to a woman to help them avoid harm, they were of the opinion that woman should have a skill she can utilize and use as an earning tool, cause the less she will be economically dependent the more she will be able to have a stronger position and hold on her life.

However one of the boys was of the opinion, that although it’s good for a woman to be self sufficient, they shouldn’t be completely independent and should act dependant especially in the society she lives for a house to work well.

It was a lively interactive session, highly appreciated by the students who were of the view sessions like these should be done regularly. They also showed interest in being part of such initiatives and organizational efforts. However they did mention that there is a higher need of such programs in rural areas, so more should be done to promote such services in the rural part of the country.

A short street theatre was also performed by the Rasti theatre group highlighting the harassments and violence women suffer in the course of her life as a mother and young girl. The message was

68 for women to empower themselves by speaking about the abuse and get help from Madadgaar National helpline in any such incident.

Participants were asked to share their own definition of what gender based violence is. Students shared that violence targeted toward females is gender based violence. Their views were strengthened by sharing the below definition.

Gender-Based Violence is violence involving men and women, in which the woman is usually the victim; and which is derived from gender norms and roles as well as from unequal power relations between women and men. Violence is specifically targeted against a person because of his or her gender, and it affects women disproportionately. It includes, but is not limited to, physical, sexual, and psychological harm (including intimidation, suffering, coercion, and/or deprivation of liberty within the family or within the general community). It includes violence perpetuated by the state.

Key elements that perpetuated GBV were discussed. It was discussed how power/power imbalance, and the subordinate status of women, as well as the various types of violence (e.g., physical, sexual, and psychological) give birth to GBV.

Session No. 3 Karachi School of Arts

Another workshop and theater was done at Karachi School of Arts 22 April 2014 with a participation of 110 students. Various myths related to Gender based violence were thrown at kids to share their views and whether they agree or not. The questions led to an interesting to and fro discussion, each team trying to convince the other on their own view points. Mr. Javed the student advisor was also actively participating and in response to the question whether certain cultural norms and customs lead to violence, said that there are many such negative customs in rural areas, where women and girls are killed in the name of honor and to save their false prides. They even do violence in the name of religion by propagating wrong beliefs to the masses. Girls were of the view that violence is mostly perpetuated by males as they are a delicate being and easily intimidated by males in our society. However when asked whether males are the only 69 responsible agent. They said women by remaining silent also contribute to the violence around them. The theatre performance had a great impact on reinforcing the concept to speak and seek help in a violent situation and how a woman has the power to protect herself, by self confidence and her own awareness. The session was thoroughly enjoyed and performance was highly applauded with clapping at climaxes.

Activities

Students were facilitated to explore their own views and beliefs about gender-based violence through an interesting exercise. The group was asked to stand in the center of the room. Students were told that they shall be given a few statement and they to step to the right if they agree with the statement or step to the left if they disagree.

Participants choose whether they agree or not, and explained why they voted the way they did. Further questions were asked to generate responses. The statements shared were

 Women are just as likely to perpetuate norms around violence as men are.  In certain circumstances, women provoke violent behavior.  Gender-based violence is too culturally sensitive an issue  Men sometimes have a good reason to use violence against their partners.  The perpetrators of violence are a minority group of men with mental health issues.  Violence may be perpetrated by those with mental health problems, but it is by no means a symptom or behavior related just to those who are mentally ill. Violence and GBV in particular, is a common occurrence worldwide, as we will see in our next session. It is a socially and culturally learned behavior.

Poverty or war lead to attacks on and abuse of women. Poverty and war may exacerbate levels of violence. Some studies have found these phenomena to be risk factors for gender- based violence. However, they are not the cause of violent behavior. Gender-based violence cuts across socio-economic levels. There are many individuals living in poverty or war who are not violent toward women, and there are many individuals in higher economic quintiles or non-conflict settings that are violent toward women.

70

Gender-based violence is caused by substance abuse such as alcohol and/or drugs. Substance abuse may precipitate violent behavior or make potential victims more susceptible to violence. First, it may lower inhibitions on the side of the perpetrator. For the potential victims, it may impair judgment and cause them to make decisions that put them in situations that increase their risk for abuse or prevent them from defending themselves. It is important to recognize that neither alcohol or drugs or the victim should be blamed in these situations.

Violence against women is unacceptable under all circumstances.

Gender-based violence is an inevitable part of intimate partner relations. Disagreements and disputes may be inevitable parts of intimate partner relations. However, violence as a way to resolve those disputes is not. Violence is a learned behavior and can be unlearned.

Violence against women is an inherent part of maleness or a natural expression of male sexual urges. Male violence is not genetically based; it is perpetuated by a model of masculinity that permits and even encourages men to be aggressive. It is up to us as individuals, communities, and society to change these gender norms so that violence against women is not accepted or tolerated.

Students were asked to share their views on how do our own cultures shape our opinions about violence toward women and girls and whether cultural norms and experiences influence the way we address GBV in our projects/programs or even whether we address it at all?

Students were in agreement that customs like honor killing and early marriages as well as stopping girls to execute their free wills in making important life decisions on the basis of false religious claims all added to lowering woman’s place in the society

71

Groups were explained that justifications for violence are frequently based on gender norms:

Gender norms are the socially assigned roles and responsibilities of women and men. Cultural and social norms often socialize men to be aggressive, powerful, unemotional, and controlling. This contributes to a social expectation (by both men and women) that accepts men as dominant. Similarly, expectations of women are that they are passive, nurturing, submissive, and the socialization of both men and women has resulted in an unequal balance of power and unequal power relationships between women and men. In many societies, children learn that men are dominant and that violence is an acceptable means of asserting power and resolving conflict. Women as mothers and mothers-in-law unwittingly perpetuate violence by socializing boys and girls to accept the dominance of men and by acquiescing throughout life to Mothers teach their daughters to accept the roles that society assigns them, often punishing deviant behavior to ensure their sexual and social acceptance.

Session No. 4 Institute of Advanced Careers and Talents

A final session was held in Institute of Advanced Careers and Talents on April 22, 2014. The session attracted around 152 students who enthusiastically answered and shared opinions on the topic. A few students also asked questions to us, as how does the helpline work and under the situation, where someone is being kidnapped, how can helpline be contacted. They also inquired if we hold sessions in communities and showed interest in supporting the helpline in conducting these sessions in marginalized areas and schools. The session was a success, having 90% registration for being part of Madadgaar Youth advocate club.

Students were asked why women remain in an abusive relationship. Students gave one major reason to be they being totally dependent on their husbands and unable to support themselves and also because of their children future.

72

Following reasons were discussed as well

 Fear of not being able to support her  Fear of not being able to support her children  Barriers to being able to gain access to a safer situation (distance, no money for transport, plus the potential lack of support from friends and family)  Fear of having children taken away from her and put back with her abusive partner  Fear of having no place to go (partner may have already isolated her from family and friends)  Fear of not having a place to live, insurance for herself and children  Fear of partner killing her, or the children  Disbelief that she is being abused  Still loves him and believes he can change; hopes things will improve  Religious beliefs discourage divorce  Fear that family and friends will not believe her  May feel she can manage the situation

Intervention approach:

Approaches to overcome GBV were quickly ran through Community mobilization Behavior change communication Health service delivery Laws and policies

It includes any act or threat by men or male dominated institutions that inflict physical, sexual, or psychological harm on a woman or girl because of their gender. In most cultures, traditional beliefs, norms and social institutions legitimize and therefore perpetuate violence against women.

74

4. What role youth can play to end this menace? 5. Why you think Woman is suffering? 6. What information and knowledge if she had could lower her suffering and ensure her security?

Students especially girl highly recommended education and how it much it is important for women to have education, as they are the mothers and unless they don’t know what’s right and what’s wrong how will they be able to raise healthy children, who eventually will either perpetuate Violence or try to eliminate it. A boy when told that most girls have at the back of mind that all they eventually want to do is settle and get married, and that is why they hardly take any interest, on which a passionate young girl, stood up and denied the statement saying not today, the women of today take their education more seriously than even boys and saying that is very wrong and degrading. Students keenly listened to how gender based violence starts and how and on what levels it occurs over the life of a girl. Six Stages of the Life Cycle of violence were discussed

1. Pre-birth 2. Infancy 3. Childhood 4. Adolescence 5. Reproductive Age 6. Elderly

Students were asked and informed on the different types of gender-based violence that can occur at each stage of the life cycle.

The final segment of the workshop was the theatre which was thoroughly enjoyed.

Youth Conference on Role of Youth in Combating Gender Based Violence

As the issue of Gender Based violence gains more attention in our society, through media coverage, introduction of new legislation and advocating by women's groups, many organizations are realizing that education is necessary and intervention essential. Schools are increasingly being recognized as valuable sites for interventions because they reach large numbers at ages when education can be particularly effective, and is desperately needed.

A conference on Role of Youth in Combating Gender Based Violence-brought together, Madadgaar National Helpline and students of various universities to share ideas and models and to strategize together on future collaborations. This forum was one of the few instances in which these two groups have together explored ways that Gender based violence affect our society, especially women and children.

Four main themes ran through this conference, the first, that violence limits options and robs individuals of the freedom to develop to their full potential. Second, abuse tends to occur in cycles. Someone who was abused as a child is likely to abuse their children, perpetuating a cycle of violence. A third theme was the pervasiveness of violence in our society. A number of presenters spoke about how our society continues to solve problems through aggression and how certain cultural ideologies and customs add to perpetuate violence. Since this is what is modeled by adults and leaders, children learn that violence is an appropriate response to problems. Finally, boys in this country are acculturated to exercise power over others, and one of the ways this shows itself is through violence. Therefore, while interventions to help girls are very important, work must also be done to heal males.

Opening Session:

Session was opened with Recitation of Quran by Mr. Shamrez and a welcome from the host Mr. Rizwan Jafar (President Youth Parliament and Anchor “Sawal Hai Pakistan Ka” Program at AAJ TV. After speaking with students and warming them up, he proceed the program by inviting students and guests to watch Documentaries covering two important issues Honor Killing and Child Labor and abuse.

Documentaries by CNN and SAMAA TV

Documentaries on the topics of Honor Killing and street children was shown

Documentary by CNN: Reza Sayah, CNN INTERNATIONAL Correspondent is a man who is fighting to reverse the trend. He documented a video in which he interviewed the victim’s mother, Hamida Bibi. She reported that Fareeda Bibi (her daughter) was accused of flirting with other men by her husband. He used to beat his wife and eventually killed her. Madadgaar Helpline provided support to vulnerable family of honor killing’s victim. Mr. Awan was also interviewed and shared his views on the same. CNN declared Mr. Zia Awan as hero in this documentary.

Press Conference Covered By Samaa Tv: In this video, a press conference by Madadgaar was covered by Samaa TV, where a seven-year old girl, Samina was kidnapped from Manghopir, Karachi and was made to beg on the streets. Longing for her mother, Samina first went to Edhi Center and then approached Madadgaar National Helpline. According to the head of Madadgaar, Mr. Zia Awan, the police system has failed which is evident by the exponential increase in cases of kidnapping and child abuse.

Street Theatre by Rasti Group

Dramatically staged, The Rasti Theater Troupe (a group of trained peer leaders who write and perform scenes that illustrate date violence) acted out an all-too-common situation of problems young girls and women faced when going out on the streets of their cities and towns. The performance started with a girl waiting on a bus stop for the bus, which was late due to the CNG shortage. As she worriedly paced back and forth, a group of boys surrounded her and start harassing and teasing her. When she slaps one of them, they become hostile and try abducting her. She calls Madadgaar for help on which the boys runaway to save their lives.

In the next segment a dominating male was abusing his wife a young mother of two minor girls on a trivial issue of not having his meal ready and saying hateful remarks to her for giving birth to girls and not a boy. In the discussion that follows, peer leaders listen to young audience members as they show the man giving verdict to the woman to leave the house before he returns 79 with her girls as he wants to marry to have a boy to continue his progeny. The segment ended while amidst tears Kulsoom remembered words of a friend who had told her about an organization that helps women victims of violence and provided them with shelter.

The theatre was very insightful, educational, and very well produced. Students greatly applauded the performance, throughout by hooting on climaxes and clapping on great performances.

Welcome to Guests

Welcome Address to youth by Zia Ahmed Awan

Keynote speaker Advocate Zia Ahmed Awan, founder of Lawyers for Human Rights and Legal Aid and Madadgaar National Helpline, opened the conference with a look at the psychology of women caught in a cycle of domestic violence. Mr. Awan focused the issues clearly with her reminder that "we need to make young women know that they were all born warm, restful, 80 creating human beings and they were not put here to be messed with." He pointed out that domestic violence is largely an issue of lack of self-esteem and that girls experiencing it start to believe they deserve the violence being inflicted on them.

Teens may be especially susceptible, Avery continued, to the sex roles presented in society that are overwhelmingly stereotypical and that often portray GBV as the norm or as glamorous. In many cases, these teens may be predisposed to accept GBV because of their exposure to it in their own homes or through the media. Additionally, Mr. Awan urged all to ask why this problem is happening in our society. She reasons that if we ask the questions, we will think harder, and thinking harder leads to the realization that adolescent sexual violence is a pervasive problem in our society. Domestic violence and rape, like all other types of violence, are an issue of power. Awan reminded participants that there is power in a man forcing a woman to give in to his wrong demands. And there is power in our society creating a system that perpetuates this cycle of violence both by its failure to acknowledge the problem and by the lack of sufficient legislation to protect women and girls.

Awan’s mentioned that the chilling fact is that, without treatment, these men go back to their community and commit the same crimes again and again. Programs that address the problems these men have and that work on treating them are absolutely essential, although, even with programs, many offenders repeat their violence.

Presentation about Madadgaar National Helpline by Mr. Waheed Khattak:

Manager Madadgaar National Mr. Waheed Khattak gave brief presentations about the working mechanism of Madadgaar National Helpline, that helpline services consists of telephonic counseling, case handling, walk-in clients, referral and follow up.

M&E/HR Officer of Madadgaar National Helpline Ms. Samreen Naz gave brief description on role of women in combating gender based violence and all its forms. She said that women are being threatened, tortured and murdered by the bad customary practices on the name of Honor killing, Watta Satta, Vani and Sawara.There are many such negative customs in rural areas, where women and girls are killed in the name of honor and to save their false prides. Men even do violence in the name of religion by propagating wrong beliefs to the masses. Violence is mostly perpetuated by males as females are a delicate being and easily intimidated by males in our society. Mr. Samreen Naz said that women by remaining silent also contribute to the violence around them. A Woman has the power to protect herself, by self confidence and her own awareness.

What is Gender Based Violence by Ms. Farida Nizamuddin

Youth Coordinator of Madadgaar National Helpline Ms. Farida Nizamuddin told the youth about Gender Based Violence. She said that Gender-Based Violence is a violence involving men and women, in which the woman is usually the victim; and which is derived from gender norms and roles as well as from unequal power relations between women and men. Violence is specifically targeted against a person because of his or her gender, and it affects women disproportionately. It includes, but is not limited to, physical, sexual, and psychological harm (including intimidation, suffering, coercion, and/or deprivation of liberty within the family or within the general community). It includes violence perpetuated by the state.

Violence against women by Ms. Najam us Sahar

Psycho-Social Counsellor of Madadgaar National Helpline Ms. Najam us Sahar spoke about the violence against women. She said that Violence against women is unacceptable under all circumstances. Gender-based violence is an inevitable part of current partner relations. Disagreements and disputes may be inevitable parts of intimate partner relations, however, violence as a way to resolve those disputes is not. Violence is a learned behavior and can be unlearned. Violence against women is an inherent part of maleness or a natural expression of male sexual urges. Male violence is not genetically based; it is perpetuated by a model of masculinity that permits and even encourages men to be aggressive. It is up to us as individuals, 82 communities, and society to change these gender norms so that violence against women is not accepted or tolerated.

Address by Majda Rizvi

Majda Rizvi took the podium by commenting she may be fragile physically, she still is a strong women in heart and mind. In response of a request to her to share real cases, she shared a story of 15 year old girl, who was buried alive by her uncles, as she wanted to marry by her choice. She said although Islam has given right to women to marry just like men on their choice, yet such cases are prevalent. And even in such cases when offender are arrested, the feudal involved still remain free. She described the role of organizations like Panah in helping, providing shelter education and empowerment to women and how important such institutions are.

She posed a question to the students as to why even with so much work being done, laws available police and courts in place cases of violence still prevalent? A student in answer said that we need strong laws and even stronger implementation and punishments like in Saudi Arab, where there is 0% crimes due to the punishments and with no exceptions on the rules for anyone big or small. In these places people think twice to break the law. While in Pakistan no crimes are ever punished and even there are arrests, with the use of power and bribes the criminals are send back in society. Majda Rizvi enforced the importance of how old and damaging thinking prevalent in families are the major destructive forces. That even if these punishments are practiced, still violence will not go, until the mindsets and thinking of the society is changed. In their homes mothers need to love both girl and boy and equal opportunities of education and exercising freedom should be given to both girls and boys. Discrimination on slightest level can lead to violent attitudes and behaviors in men. So a real change must come in thinking. And that you raise voice against crime. Education is must to bring that attitudinal change and every youth is responsible for himself and those he comes in interaction with. Only this way a real change is possible.

83

Speech by Shehla Raza

She mentioned her first interaction with Mr. Zia Awan in jail, as she was prisoned in a violence case. He called Zia to help her. And wrote letters as there were no mobile phones back then in jails. In society, powerful individuals pressure the weak on basis of power. Anyone who is powerful, whether it is a teacher or an employer, he will use power in his or her capacity, which eventually lead a person to walk on the path of cruelty. Power balance if kept violence can be resolved. She stressed that the student’s role is an important one as they are our today and tomorrow. She shared the news of a young teen suicide bomber who blasts himself when he shakes hand with a policeman. She than emphasizes how if the same teen was used in a positive way. But how these negative forces are using our youth and how we need to stop this.

In context of Gender based violence and her long working in the cause, she said that a Gender human bill is to being passed this Tuesday. Many such bills are already passed and constitution are there , but this alone cannot help unless we have the societal will and our man need to give confidence to woman and girls and involve them in decision making, should a good change is to be brought. Political will alone cannot help we need to have societal will. Social change comes from home.

She added why women are not tortured in west. Reason being they speak against it. While here although feudalism has been removed long back the attitude still there and not until it is removed any good can be expected. Any law to be enforced we need 2/3rd majority, but due to this mentality we never get that.

She offered facts that even when women do raise voice and go to register FIRs, the police denies to register by declaring it’s a case of domestic violence and so it should be resolved inside home. 84

If that doesn’t work they falsely accuse woman to have an affair and deserving it. Even in the rape cases when DNAs are proved, they are rejected on the basis, that these are scientific -----and thus unacceptable. She demanded that if science was a nuisance then why these same individuals moving around in big pajeros and having the highest technology. This is the hypocrisy that makes this a weak system. And under these systems and mindsets how a woman has to get her rights.

Male students were asked that their role is on individual level. They need to be aware of what is going around in their surrounding and if their friends are not involved in any questionable acts or company and incase if they find suspicious activity to inform their parents and they can be stopped in their tracks before it’s too late . She said it is their responsibility to be attentive to any sign of violence around them and report them. She also said that an early marriage bill is being passed to fight the evil of Child and forced marriages. In the end she advised girls that as women you should remember that to stay silent in face of violence is disobedience to Allah.

Address by President MAJU Dr. Abdul Wahab

Dr. Abdul Wahab, president Jinnah university was welcomed amidst clapping hands. In his address to his youth he appreciated the need to have seminars like this which are essential for students as they get to know about social problems and what the ground relaity is so that in their practical lives they know what problems liein the society. He stated that in our society there is an attitude in men to consider women as a weaker sex. Women are commonly tagged as unintelligent and ignorant. As soon as they are married they are told that her only home is that of her husbands and she must only leave it after she die. With such a limiting thought , what message are we ppropogating to the children. She emphasized that social equality is must. If a mother is being beaten in front of her kids it will affect negatively and so women need to empower themselves so that they can be independent finalncially and be able to use this to their advantage in face of violence.

85

He also shared humporusly about the reply he got from her daughter who is married when asked if her husband was treating her right. She replied that if he ever treated me badly she would break his teeth. This is the attitute a woman should have if she has to ensure she has to be respected. He firther mentioned that there are 50000 cases registered in courts showing that women of today has gone beyond the old saying that she must suffer and die suffering. If women are strong she will never let anyone mess with her. He further encoraged youth especially girls to take education seriously so that they can financially support themselves. He also joked by telling boys to get rates of dental procedures, in case they end up with a woman like that. He ended the speech by saying youth are the change we need in the society.

Question and Answer Session

Through out the conference different questions were posed at the students, to keep them involved and clarify their views and myths if any. When asked by Justice (R ) Mrs. Majda Rizvi, why with so much laws and lay emforcement authorities in place we still have so much violence in the society. One student answered that the answer lies in proper implementation of punsihments without exception, whether poosr or rich, weak or powerful man or woman. Unless we don’t punsih the crime, people will not stop doing it. In Saudi Arab and UAE, the fact that the rules are so strong and punsihments are so tough, and implemented, people think twice to do something. While in Pakistan, there is no rule of law. There is nothing that cannot be accomplished on the bais of power and money or brible.

Press Release

National Youth conference on Role of Youth in Combating Gender Based Violence Violence is a termite for the Nation: Zia Ahmed Awan Early Marriages bill to be presented in Sindh Assembly on 29th April: Shehla Raza Violence cannot be stopped until gender discrimination is curbed: Justice (r) Majid Rizvi Karachi (press release): Deputy Speaker of Sindh Assembly Shehla Raza said that tolerating oppression is polytheism. We have to raise our voices against gender based violence and all its forms. She was speaking to the youth conference organized by Madadgaar National Helpline on Thursday at Mohammad Ali Jinnah University on ‘Role of Youth in Combating Gender Based Violence”.

Addressing to the youth, Deputy Speaker Sindh Assembly Shehla Raza said that I have old relationship with Zia Awan Advocate. In the past, when I was sent to prison by state actors, I wrote a letter to Zia Awan for legal aid. She said that wrong use of wealth and power gives birth to violence. She said that dictatorship is also a form of violence because a dictator uses power for taking charge of government; he can never come into power through electoral way. In dictatorial societies, wealth is given more importance because it’s a symbol of power and authority and this authority is used to oppress feeble and in our society and women are weakest gender in our society. She said that feudalism is no more in the country and there is no feudal lord exists but feudal mind set still prevails. To dissolve this mindset, not only political will, social will is compulsory as well. Social change will start from our homes. If you advise your daughter to bear the cruelty of her in-laws with patience, it means that you are advising your daughter to accept gender based violence. She said that domestic violence is also common in cities especially mental violence. Police doesn’t cooperate with women victim of domestic violence and says them to solve their domestic issues within their homes. Shehla Raza said that during Mazar-e- Quaid rape caes, a politician said that why the woman went to Mazar with her husband at night. Another senator said that why her husband was carrying 20, 22 kilogram meat with him. If state president says that rape victim women raise their voices for international fame, then who will provide justice to victims. Criticizing Pakistan Protection Ordinance (PPO), Shehla Raza said that under this ordinance, forces are given authority of 90 days remand and shoot at sight. Isn’t this authority violence? Pakistan is the first country in world where a school girl is shot at head. 89

She said that Sindh assembly holds the honour of passing bill against violence on women for the first time. We will present early marriages bill on the floor of Sindh Assembly on Tuesday and also working on domestic violence bill. Criticizing the recommendations of Islamic Ideology Council, she said that early marriage should be prohibited strictly. Why the DNA isn’t considered as evidence in rape case? She said that clerics legitimize all scientific inventions but when the women rights issues arise, they stand against it. If they are true, then why do they use telescope for sighting moon. They don’t give vote to women but accept women’s witness on moon sighting. They seem united eleven months but on the twelfth month, Mr. Populzai sees his different moon. Shehla Raza said that some persons created hurdles in my political progress but when I got opportunity, I made world record by being selected continuously deputy speaker for the second time. She said that tolerating oppression is polytheism in my point of view. We have to raise our voices against oppression.

First women high court judge in Pakistan and chairperson Sindh Human Rights Commission, Justice R Majida Rizvi said that violence has many forms like physical, mental, psychological and emotional violence. She said that to stop a girl form education and scolding a house maid are also forms of violence. Majida Rizvi said that gender discrimination is based in our homes, until and unless we give equal opportunities to our sister and brothers and sons and daughters, gender based violence will not be stopped. You have to rise against oppression.

President of Mohammad Ali Jinnah University Dr Abdul Wahab said that to eliminate violence form our society, we will have to change our minds. He said that the easiest way to empower a woman is to make her financially strong. Dr Abdul Wahab said to the female students to concentrate on their studies fully so that they could be strong financially as well as socially.

Addressing to the youth, founder of Madadgaar National Helpline Zia Ahmed Awan said that violence is a termite for the nation. Youth should be equipped with awareness regarding the ugly aspects of gender based violence. He said that until and unless laws are not implemented, legislation against gender based violence will be of no effect.

Manager of Madadgaar National Helpline gave a presentation on working mechanism of Madadgaar National Helpline and told the students how Madadgaar is serving children and women survivors of violence. He also briefed about the Madadgaar’s lobbying and advocacy campaigns to sensitize legislators regarding gender based violence.

Along with students of Mohammad Ali Jinnah University, youth conference was attended by students of Mass Communication & Sociology department of Karachi University, Federal Urdu University of Arts Science and Technology and Karachi School of Art. Issued by: Madadgaar National Helpline

Welcome note: Ms Sehrish Farooq presented her welcome remarks for the chief guest, guest speaker & all the invitees.

Later youth speakers were invited one by one to give their views on the conference topic.

Ambreen Akram (Youth Speaker Shalimar College)

Ambreen represented herself on the behalf of Social work department, Government Shalimar College. She said according to her, the first step to combat gender based violence is to aware youth about gender based violence and about the concept of equality. One of the structured reasons of becoming a perpetuator of violence is STEREOTYPING. She said since the inception we are surrounded with many stereotypes. Neither the teacher, nor the learner knows about the damage these stereotypes can cause. Equality of rights for men and women are also important as well as it must be ensured that both of them can exercise their rights according to their will, which in our country is very difficult. She said that a new positive thinking and a peaceful approach should be introduced to male as well as the female, so that no one could ever think to commit violence. She said that parents also play an important role and there should not be discriminatory behavior between a boy and girl. Parents should not think that a girl’s job is to manage her home but her job is to nurture and manage the generation. The dignity of both is equal and this is needed to be understood completely.

Qudsia Nashee (Youth Speaker Applied psychology Punjab University)

Ms. Qudsia represented on the behalf of institute of Applied psychology, University of Punjab. According to Qudsia, gender based violence is committed due to different reasons like frustration, depression, etc. when these emotions aren’t handled properly by individuals; they get hyper and commit violence. One of the reasons is pressure from society and from other relationships. Among the cases of gender based violence, there are many cases where the relatives force the perpetuators to commit violence on the victims. Gender based violence is not an issue for some particular or specific class, but it can be seen in every class, every society but according to their social status and customs. It really doesn’t matter whether the society belongs to a developed country or an underdeveloped one. She said that acceptance of gender based

95 violence is becoming a factor to enhance this problem. When we are in the position to justify our discriminatory behavior then we are in a state of accepting and promoting the violent behavior by ourselves, so before bringing change in society, we should bring change in ourselves because “charity begins at home”.

As soon as we will recognize these things by ourselves, we may not be able to combat the issue completely but surely will be able to take some strong steps to reduce it.

Irum Baneen (student of Social work)

Irum highlighted the different forms of gender based violence, i.e. domestic violence, sexual harassment, harmful customary practices, forced marriages, honor killing etc. trafficking and forced prostitution is one of the severe forms of gender based violence.

Irum stated that it has been estimated that almost 20 to 25% women in Europe have suffered from physical violence. The number of women who have faced other forms of gender based violence is much higher. People in developing country generalize this fact that there is as such no violence going on in developed countries, but many studies and surveys conducted in the developed countries show that there is no clear difference in the level of violent acts if but genre of countries are compared.

Speaking about Pakistan, Irum said that even after rectification of UN conventions that secure individuals from violence, especially women, no positive results are seen. CEDAW, giving women her basic rights and respect along with dignity, no doubt Pakistan is a member of it, but still no use. If we have a glance of our society, we all will agree with the statement that despite accepting and agreeing to secure women, no proper implementation is done.

She highlighted another most important issue that was confidentiality of these sensitive issues. She said that Mandatory actions should be taken in this respect.

Masooma Abdi speech (Student of Gender Studies)

Masooma Abdi, student of masters in gender studies, University of Punjab gave a world- shattering speech for the theme “Gender based violence”. In her view, our society has many discriminatory practices going on in our society that is one of the basic reasons for GBV in our society. Then sexual assaults, harassments as well as rape, become some of the important factors that women try not to go outside their homes and lose their confidence along with their self esteem. She questioned the religious facilitators or in our home language our “imam” and “molvi” to give suitable logics that why are the women not given their demanded and respectful status in an Islamic society like ours, even when the Holy Quran as well as Hadith and Sunnah are the advocates for the rights of everyone especially women. Through many Quranic verses she explained the importance of status of women in Islam, and said that it should be given in every society.

96

Advocate ZIA Ahmed Awan (Founder Madadgaar)

Addressing to the youth, founder of Madadgaar National Helpline Zia Ahmed Awan said that violence is a termite for the nation. He said that the youth occupies the largest sector of

Pakistan’s population. Empowering youth will lead to a brighter and socially healthy nation. Youth should be equipped with awareness regarding the ugly aspects of gender based violence. He said that until or unless laws are not implemented, legislation against gender based violence will be of no effect. He also said that Govt. departments should collaborate with Non- Government organizations so they can provide reciprocal services to each other.

He said there is a need to change the mindset of women and women should stop thinking herself as inferior to men. He said education and economic empowerment is very important for women to get her status in this patriarchal society. He said if change is to be brought in a society then we should change ourselves. He said discriminatory attitudes/traditions lead towards gender based violence. He said we should challenge it on each and every level and youth can play an important role in it. We should encourage our youth in decision making process so they can feel empowered.

Mrs Nasreen Farooq Ayub (Advisor Office of the Ombudsman Punjab).

While talking to the youth, Advisor Ombusman Punajb, Ms Nasreen Farooq Ayub said that Ombudsman office has very good relationships with Madadgaar National Helpline and they are strong partners. Ombudsman used to refer cases to them and Madadgaar always help them in women and children cases of abuse, violence and exploitation. She said that there is need to change our discriminatory mind sets that are still present and we should prepare our girls to raise their voices against violence and abuse. She said children complaint office is there to help the children and I request the youth to refer cases to children complaint office, Ombudsman Punjab so, we may save our children. Additionally, she said that Social change will start from our homes so we should focus on the training of our new generation.

According to her, the issue of gender based violence is at rise especially in rural areas because of lack of education and minimum access to resources. So this issue should be dealt at micro level and planning should also be done at micro level. Effective remedies should also be developed. According to her, GBV harms individuals and deprives them from their rights. In fact gender based violence is there with us in every stage of our life. Discriminatory attitude stars from pre birth, when it is known whether the baby is a girl or boy. GBV is there with us in our childhood, adulthood and old age. Hence all our lives, we face GBV. There is an important need to empower each citizen and so the role of civil society as well as other institutions is very important in this regard. If people learn to tolerate and respect other and have an access to equal rights, the scenario will be very different yet a positive one.

97

Mrs. Ruhi Sayed (Chairperson APWA)

Ms. Ruhi Sayed (Chairperson APWA Punjab) said that I am very happy that an organization is present here that provide true help and assistance to the victims of violence and abuse and APWA is here to support Madadgaar in this noble goal. She endorsed Ms. Nasreen Farooq and said that if we will advise our daughters to bear the cruelty /discrimination with patience, it means that we are advising our daughters to accept gender based violence. She said there is another form of abuse that is usually not considered in our society and it is emotional/ psychological abuse. Our society has accepted it as a right thing and nobody raise voice for it. She said when we will decide to condemn violence we will become empowered.

She said that youth is the nucleus of every society and the future of a nation, and its progress and development depends upon the youth because it is the backbone of the future. She also stated that the definition and framework of the concept GENDER should be redefined. The basic need of the time is to understand that men and women both are equal and deserve to get equal access to resources and equal rights. From planning of every strategy and policy to its implementation, a strong check should be kept so the needs of both are catered and answered. While setting objectives for the policy, it should be kept in mind what will be the outcomes of their planning and strategies. Many of the times limited targets are set which ultimately results in the ignorance of rights especially the civil, political economical and social rights.

She also said that it has been observed that women ranging from18yrs to 44 yrs face disability in the result of being a victim of some kind of gender based violence. She said there is need to work at grass root level. Support of all agencies and institutions is needed along with effective suggestions and recommendations to reduce gender based violence. APWA has done a lot of work in the amendments of different acts including Hadood ordinance, Muslim family ordinance, etc. Currently; APWA is working for home based workers in Pakistan. With the efforts of APWA, domestic worker wages has been finalized. APWA is also making effort so that Pakistan could rectify ILO’s related to home based workers. In the end, she said that to achieve any target, the most important step is to mobilize our youth for obtaining favorable results.

Ms. Fauzia Saeed (Psychologist Pakistan Red Cross Society)

First of all, she thanked Madadgaar for inviting her. She was of the view that if we want youth to combat the issue, it is important to sensitize them and all those who gave the speeches, it means that the youth is aware and sensitized about gender based violence which is strong step in reducing GBV. If change is to be brought, then we should start from ourselves and should train and sensitize mothers because mothers bring good and positive change in society as nature has given her the responsibility for nurturing the future generation of every society. Mothers should not bring her children up with discriminatory attitude. In the end she stated that if we will change ourselves, we will surely change the whole society.

98

Ms. Fauzia Waqar (Chairperson Punjab Commission on the Status of Women)

On the status of women, Chairperson Punjab commission Ms. Fauzia Waqar said that on 8 March, 2013 as Women Empowerment Day, Punjab assembly has passed the Punjab Commission on the Status of Women Bill 2013. She was speaking to the youth conference organized by Madadgaar National Helpline on Monday at Institute of social and cultural studies, university of the Punjab Lahore on ‘Role of Youth in Combating Gender Based Violence”. She said that according to the bill, the Punjab government constituted a commission that shall consist of a female chairperson for women’s empowerment in society.

She focused that gender based violence is not only the Asian countries problem but is founded worldwide. Until or unless we raise our voices against gender based violence in all its forms nobody can help us. She said that the easiest way to empower a woman is to make her economically strong. Women should stop herself to comply to others and should participate in decision making.

According to a survey almost 80% of the women of Pakistan face some type of gender based violence. Globally, almost 50% of the women face GBV. Apart from the psychological, physical and sexual violence, Ms. Fauzia Waqar thinks depriving one from their decision making power as well as lack of access of participation in the political process, is one of the most important yet ignored form of gender based violence anyone can ever face. In Pakistan only about 2% of women are there who own some kind of property by their name. If one doesn’t have any assets of their own or are deprived from their property rights is a victim of violence. The issues like wage disparity as well as lack of access of resources is also a form of violence. She said that field of micro finance is relatively better for women in this respect that it provides them with loans but not more than 19,000Rs. The loan then is utilized either in the renovation of their homes or any other unproductive acts. Focus should be kept in these types of forms. While talking about politics she said in political set up there are 17% of women present in the parliament because of reserved seats and almost 8 women in Punjab assembly when there are more than or at least 200 men. Less than 5% women work as secretaries in the assembly and parliament.

Addressing the governments, she said that govt. institutions that are working for the same cause must work together rather than in isolation. She said Government should take appropriate measures to help the victims. She offered Madadgaar to work with Punjab commission on the status of women to better work for the elimination of discrimination in all its forms. She also said

99

that accountability of all the Govt departments must also be ensured so they can work properly. Furthermore, she said that there is a dire need to work with the academic institutions so they can support government in research area. She thanked Madadgaar and appreciated their services.

Scope and Purpose of the activity:

LHRLA aims to achieve promotion of 1098 in the youth and aware them on venues available to them for seeking help in advent of Gender based violence they foresee in their surroundings. In this regard Madadgaar National Helpline in order to mobilize the existing Madadgaar youth advocate clubs, formed in various universities around the city did an awareness campaign in the two main cities Karachi and Lahore. The campaign in each city was designed to educate youth as well as general public with the use of banners and media and to have ripple effects, as the youth educated through these campaigns will be motivated to transfer this knowledge to many others.

Objectives of the campaign

1- To define Gender based Violence and its types 2- To assess where the nation stands and the role of state and what should be done on government level to minimize the effects of gender based violence. 3- To discuss what part youth can play to ensure steps are taken to minimize GBV and what best strategies can be made to overcome GBV on Government and youth level 4- To discuss available venues that are there to give support to victims of GBV

As the issue of Gender Based violence gains more attention in our society, through media coverage, introduction of new legislation and advocating by women's groups, many organizations are realizing that education is necessary and intervention essential. Schools are increasingly being recognized as valuable sites for interventions because they reach large numbers at ages when education can be particularly effective, and is desperately needed.

Banners highlighting the issue of Gender Based Violence condemning and encouraging public to fight the devil both in Urdu and English Language were placed at important popular spots around the city that Gender based violence affect our society, especially women and children.

Four main themes ran through these banners, the first, boys in this country are acculturated to exercise power over others, and one of the ways this shows itself is through violence. Therefore, while interventions to help girls are very important, work must also be done to heal males they should be educated to change their attitudes towards women. Second, Police was targeted to change their attitudes about GBV. A third theme was the pervasiveness of violence in our society. Finally, silence was condemned as being just as dangerous as violence itself.

Analysis Report of Evaluation Form of Gender Based Violence

Madadgaar National Helpline is always looking for ways to mobilize youth and do positive activities with them.

Madadgaar National Helpline organized an Open Air Workshop 21st April 2014 till 23rd April 2014 in different universities and colleges in Karachi and organized Youth Conference “Role of Youth in Combating Gender Based Violence (GBV) on 24th April 2014 at Muhammad Ali Jinnah University. Madadgaar National Helpline always focused on issues of youth, children and women in Pakistan. That’s the reason Madadgaar National Helpline radiated evaluation form of Gender Based Violence (GBV) in open air workshop which was held in different universities and colleges and youth conference in Muhammad Ali Jinnah University. The aim of this evaluation form is that what the young people of Pakistan think about (GBV) .

Introduction to study

 What is Gender Based Violence?

Gender-based violence (GBV) is violence that is directed against a person on the basis of gender. It constitutes a breach of the fundamental right to life, liberty, security, and dignity, equality between women and men, non-discrimination and physical and mental integrity. Gender-based violence reflects and reinforces inequalities between men and women.

Gender-based violence and violence against women are often used interchangeably as most gender-based violence is inflicted by men on women and girls.  Types of Gender Based Violence:  Overt physical abuse (includes a battering, sexual assault at home or in the work place.  Psychological abuse (includes deprivation of liberty, forced marriage, sexual harassment at home or in the work place).

108

 Deprivation of resources needed for physical and psychological well- being (including health care, nutrition, education, means of livelihood).  Treatment of women as commodities (includes trafficking in women and girls for sexual exploitation).

Hypothesis

Our youth know about the highlighted issue and they wanted to know more about.

There are different forms of GBV against women including sexual assault, child marriage, and incest, wife beating, forced prostitution, dowry related violence, sexual harassment, honor killings, forced sterilization and kidnapping.

Our society is a male dominating society but our youth is much concern about their Rights. Media is also highlighted the issues of GBV.

This is a reality that GBV is increasing day by day in Pakistan and we want to make sure that what our youth think about this question above 90% young people think that in Pakistan GBV is increasing day by day.

Police is not much supportive that’s the reason people of Pakistan avoid to file FIR in case of any crime. Above 45% young people didn’t wanted to turn to police they wanted to turn Helpline No.

Start of 2014 number of cases reported of sexual exploitation against women. In Punjab the ratio increasing day by day and our above 30% youth think that sexual exploitation is more committed against women in Pakistan.

Research Methodology

A single survey is made of at least a sample (or full population in the case of a census), a method of data collection (e.g., a questionnaire) and individual questions or items that become data that can be analyzed statistically. A single survey may focus on different types of topics such as preferences (e.g., for a presidential candidate, behavior (smoking and alcohol use), or factual information (e.g., income), depending on its purpose. Since survey research is almost always based on a sample of the population, the success of the research is dependent on the representativeness of the sample with respect to a target population of interest to the researcher. That target population can range from the general population of a given country to specific groups of people within that country, to a membership list of a professional organization, or list of students enrolled in a school system (see also sampling statistics and survey sampling).

Facts about gender Based Violence in Pakistan

In March 2012 Rutgers WPF presented the research report about GBV in Pakistan. This research shows alarming figures in Pakistani society. They used WHO questionnaire Preliminary results show shockingly high figures:

 75% of all interviewed women have experienced physical violence.  66% have been victims of sexual violence. .  80% have been victims of psychological violence  84% have had experience with violence of some sort.

This means that women in Pakistan experience violence throughout their lives.

Notably, 24 % of all 13–16 year old girls are already married and 75% of girls between 16 and 21 years. A total of 75% of all girls have been forced into an arranged marriage in one way or another. Men are usually twice the age of their wives. Furthermore, there is a high rate of illiteracy among women and honor-related violence appears to have increased these past few years. This has strengthened the dependent position of women.

Conclusion

Gender-based violence is recognized today as a major issue on the international human rights agenda. This violence includes a wide range of violations of women’s human rights, including trafficking in women and girls, rape, wife abuse, sexual abuse of children, and harmful cultural practices and traditions that irreparably damage girls’ and women’s reproductive and sexual health.

Although reliable data on the incidence of gender-based violence are scarce, especially for developing countries, there is an increasing body of knowledge indicating that it is widespread and common. It occurs in a broad context of gender-based discrimination with regard to access to education, resources, and decision-making power in private and public life.

Girls and women face systematic discrimination from entrenched power relations that perpetuate the almost universal subordination of females. This leaves them highly vulnerable to being harmed physically, sexually or psychologically by the men in their families and communities.

123

Recommendation

Gender Based Violence is described by many as the most prevalent human right exploitation in the world. Of the varied ways in which sex discrimination, pervasive and oppressive. No other form of sex discrimination violates so many fundamental Human Rights as articulated in the 1948 United Nation Universal Declaration of Human Rights. These are included for example, in Article 1 which provides that “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights”. Article 3 which provides that “No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment”

For the evaluation of GBV Research following are the recommendation under below.

1. Pakistan is a country where the majority of the population is comprised of youth. Access to basic necessities and knowledge is a very big challenge and youth is the most vulnerable segment of society. Engaging youth for gender equality is possible only when both men and women realize their individual roles and responsibilities to contribute to a society free of violence. 2. Women in Pakistan are the most marginalized segment of society. The main problem women are facing is the negligence of their role by their own partners, family and state. There are cultural barriers and strictness, which prohibit women from competing and promoting self-awareness and growth. Several issues are associated with women only, i.e. lack of education, of basic health facilities, violence (physical, sexual, psychological) etc. State level policies especially related to violence against women exist, but proper implementation is still a big challenge. 3. In case of any violence 49% youth turn too helpline No they didn’t trust police but the tragic thing is that 21% youth didn’t want to go anywhere. In Institution level we must educate them they have to go for help for justice they have to speak. 4. Young people didn’t know what is gender? Need to educate them about it 5. Steps should be taken to explore opportunities making police more responsible and responsive towards gender-based violence.

124

6. Fresh legislation should be carried out to improve the situation of police in their respective areas and there should be proper arrangements for improving the situation for women and controlling gender-based violence. 7. The issue of gender based violence and discrimination is a reality in Pakistan and it is hard to find any justification for the occurrence of such attitude in this country. Therefore, there is an urgent need to bring policies and place institutional mechanism to protect and promote women’s rights as enshrined in the Constitution of Pakistan and other UN and International Protocols and Conventions, the country has signed and ratified.

He described the objectives of this training that for addressing GBV cases and providing them support there was dire need to build capacity of lawyers and to sensitize them with international & national laws related to GBV.

Introduction of Participants & Overview:

This was a kind of ice breaker. The introductory session was designed and implemented in such a way that it brought participants close to each other. In this session, introduction slips were given to each participant and were asked to fill them. Once these slips were filled they were asked to make pairs and exchange slips with their partners. During the introduction process, each participant was required giving information about her partner name, organization, affiliation with lower/high court, area belong to, and hobbies. This brought very interesting aspects of the lives 145 of the participants before each other and they all enjoyed learning about their personal and became informal in their behavior and close to each other.

Pre-assessment form Activity:

At the beginning of the session participants were asked to complete pre assessment forms so that their expectations and interest in this training program could be known. Most of the lawyers were aware at some extent of the issues of GBV, increasing cases of GBV in Pakistan and were looking forward to learn more about this topic and use this knowledge in their practices.

According to the evaluation form around 60% of the lawyers handle GBV cases on monthly basis. Notably, very few participants had ever received specific training on GBV and most of them had little or no knowledge about International Laws and Conventions concerning GBV.

Expectation from this training:

All the expectations were interesting and encouraging as all the participants expected to learn something from the workshop. Most of the participants expecting more knowledgeable presentations on Medico legal. Proper ways and procedure to handle the cases related to GBV and ways of Counseling of GBV victims. During the training there should be a session where the participants interact with each other so the give and take of ideas could be done. Most of them were expecting, how to help the needy victims/women and how to deal with the implementation of the laws as there are no proper implementation of law in the country. A session should be held about Human Rights.

Participants set their own norms to guide them in three days of the training. The following were adopted:  Participation in the question answer session  Cooperation among participants  Punctuality and time keeping  Adopting silence during presentations  Raise hands for any query  Respecting everyone’s contributions  Put off cell phones or set them on vibration or inaudible tones As penalty for breaking rules, participants set penalties, that defaulter would be required to present an ice breaker or share poetry.

GBV is ubiquitous; it occurs in every culture, in all levels of society and in every part of the country. GBV takes place within a variety of settings, including the home, the workplace, schools and the community.

Women in Pakistan visage horrifyingly high rates of rape, sexual assault and domestic violence while the perpetrators go unpunished owing to widespread incompetence, corruption, and bias against women throughout the societal institutions particularly in the criminal justice system.

GBV survivors often needed medical assistance in case of sexual or physical violence. Medico legal was mandatory in such cases, therefore Madadgaar organized field visit to Medico Legal Department at Jinnah Post Graduate Hospital Karachi on 25th of June.

Dr. Manzoor Memon Medico Legal Officer (MLO) welcomed the participants. He described the medico legal procedures for physical examination of GBV victims. He added, medical examination and forensic evidence were necessary for proving violence & abuse.

Ms. Bushra Syed shared that MLOs can play a significant role by providing direction in handling cases of violence & abuse. An MLO's report containing the cause of death, time of death, nature of death, and other details compiled in an official form at the time of autopsy provides the basis for a court's case, carrying an impact on the final decision.

Advocate Uzma Awan shared MLOs are of great significance to investigating all criminal cases, but unfortunately our justice system has neither recognized their importance nor bolstered their role to pass on the benefits to the public.

Field visit to Citizen Police Liaison Committee (CPLC):

In this part of the training, Ms. Bushra who is the senior counselor as well as field officer at Madadgaar National Helpline spoke about her work and provided details of it. She deals with victims closely and decides what to do, how to do, what to send and whom to send to.

Further he added, In order to be a successful lawyer a person should be well informed about the rules and regulations of the medico-legal centers in his surroundings. The lawyer should have a strong relationship with these centers as they provide the crucial evidence of an act of violence which is the basis of a case. To be an adept lawyer one should be well aware of police ordinance and must have a strong correlation with jail authorities and police stations especially its high post officers such as S.H.Os and D.I.Gs of the district in which the case is being conducted.

The lawyer should be well informed about the sections regarding human rights and the necessary actions taken upon the violation of human rights in the constitution of Pakistan. They should have a strong rapport with media associates and press clubs including having their email addresses and phone numbers which might come handy in the proceedings of a case. There should be a strong connection with high authority doctors of the health departments and with the administrator of shelter homes, as their association might prove to be of importance in dealing with a case.

A lawyer should be aware of all the medico-legal problems that can arise during a prosecution. Health department should be reported if:

 There is a delay in the submission of a final report,

155

 There are unclear statements or irrelevant spacing between sentences in the medico-legal report,  The final and medico-legal reports are contrary to each other.

A lawyer should be aware of all the board notices that have been issued so that in case of an unusual or controversial documentation an action could be taken. Medico-legal reports should be completed and care should be taken to ensure that all the options are filled. All evidences including victim’s clothes, slides, personal belongings present on the crime scene should be sent to the laboratory for examination and the reports submitted must be verified by the lawyer to ensure that all the evidence present is reported. Clients dying declaration should be kept in record and in case of a delay an action should be taken against the person who is in-charge of it. The lawyer should verify the contents of the evidence shown in the court with the report submitted by the medico-legal officer. Every supplement report of the ML/PM report should be certified as authentic with the signature and stamp of the Additional Police Surgeon. Any information relevant to the case provided by the media or newspapers should be kept in record.

For humanitarian purpose one should send a letter to ombudsman, health secretary, chief secretary, police surgeon, medical superintendent, medico-legal officer to ensure that show cause of the court’s order is being followed. The lawyer should also make sure that women rights are protected and they are not pressurized by anyone under any circumstances.

Finalizing Action Plans:

At the end of the training session, Action plan was finalized for lawyers of resource pool. They were requested to send us Cases of GBV dealt by them through courier and then they have to fill these cases in online database of Lawyers as well.

In program host asked the question to Senator Saeed ghani in last five years what does government did for judiciary in answer he expressed his views as Judiciary works for justice in society, he appreciated PM decision to increase the judges in

157

courts ,so the courts effectively works and provide justice to common man on daily basis. He further added during the restoration campaign of Chief justice, the judiciary will become the institution of example but unfortunately it will not happen. There is no doubt that for Improvement in condition of the courts many changes have been made in the laws by the last government to help the victims. With this he said lawyers play a significant role in our society because they have better understanding of laws but judiciary only take up specific cases for suo moto action while people suffer for justice without transparency and accountability intuitions not work properly. Host raise the question to the Justice (Retd) Saeed uz Zaman Siddique that what is role of judiciary and government in answer he said in present situation the role of judiciary as well as government is not so good. The victims of different not concerned with high court and Supreme Court they want justice at any cost because there are ten hundred thousand cases in pending and if we analyze due to unbearable charges only 1% cases registered in Supreme Court. He further said that the government should allocate more funds to the lower courts to improve their standards.

Host asked Mr. Zia Awan that the discussion which Justice (Rtd) Saeed uz Zaman Siddiqui and Senator Saeed Ghani has raised how can they be implied in our society. Mr. Zia shared his views that Labor rights were not given to them due to all their protests. He further added that in Pakistani society the Justice lies in the hands of the Govt. It depends on the Govt whether or not they want to raise the level of Justice or not. He said that “Rule Of law” when Govt fails to maintain the citizens get more eager for Justice and if then the Government will not support Judiciary as it is a Pillar of Govt and all the past Governments have never supported Judiciary, never implemented the Judiciary decisions or never gave the funds that were required by the Judiciary due to which the Judiciary could not attain that much Justice or Help for the people. For the betterment of Law Political will should go hand in hand with the Judiciary.

The Host turned to Mr. Junaidi and asked him, What do u think what is the reason that we did not perform the Pro-Active role which we should but didn’t yet? He answered, that this society was supposed to be Public Welfare State though it didn’t turn up to be that so that’s why we are not developing rather demolishing. Democracy is lacking due to which we are facing Class problems the Upper Class is enjoying all the facilities, they are given more importance than the

158

Lower Class, similarly we have this problem in our Judiciary system. Implementation of laws is lacking due to which the society is imbalanced. He further added that in the very beginning we did not work on the Ideology now all these problems are the consequences of our avoidance of the importance of our Ideology. He said that a time will come when all the Women and Children will come in power and will raise their voice against the Government for all the discrimination that they did with them.

One of the participant shared her views that If we elect Educated Police Officers then only it will be easy to avail Justice as most of our Police officers are illiterate and are unaware of most of the laws , they do not guide the people accordingly as they themselves doesn’t know the laws properly.

In the End , Senator Saeed Ghani added that the Police should be given freedom and no political interference should be there , in this way Justice would be served easily n efficiently.

Training started with welcome to all participants by Mr. Zia Ahmed Awan Founder of Madadgaar Helpline & President of LHRLA. He described the objectives of this training that for addressing GBV cases and providing them support there was dire need to build capacity of lawyers and to sensitize them with international & national laws related to GBV. He motivated the lawyers to emphasize on volunteerism in dealing GBV cases.

Introduction of Participants & Overview:

This was a kind of ice breaker. The introductory session was designed and implemented in such a way that it brought participants close to each other. In this session, introduction slips were given to each participant and were asked to fill them. Once these slips were filled they were asked to make pairs and exchange slips with their partners. During the introduction process, each participant was required giving information about her partner name, organization, affiliation with lower/high court, area belong to, and hobbies. This brought very interesting aspects of the lives of the participants before each other and they all enjoyed learning about their personal and became informal in their behavior and close to each other.

Pre-assessment form Activity:

At the beginning of the session participants were asked to complete pre assessment forms so that their expectations and interest in this training program could be known. Most of the lawyers were aware at some extent of the issues of GBV, increasing cases of GBV in Pakistan and were looking forward to learn more about this topic and use this knowledge in their practices.

According to the evaluation form around 80% of the lawyers handle GBV cases on monthly basis. Notably, very few participants had ever received specific training on GBV and most of them had little or no knowledge about International Laws and Conventions concerning GBV.

Sr # Level of knowledge Percentage 1 Knowledge about Gender based Fully Aware: 22%, violence at some extend: 71% Not familiar with: 7%

filling procedure Fully Aware: 35%, at some extend: 36%

Expectation from this training:

All the expectations were interesting and encouraging as all the participants expected to learn a lot from the workshop. As most of the participants were not aware about GBV thoroughly therefore they were expecting briefed orientation about gender based violence. Most of the participants expecting more knowledgeable presentations on GBV and laws. Proper ways and procedure to handle the cases related to GBV and ways of Counseling of GBV victims. Most of them were expecting, how to help the needy victims/women and how to deal with the implementation of the laws as there are no proper implementation of law in the country. Along with implementation of laws, they were interested to learn about more international and national laws related to GBV. They are expecting more group works.

Norms of Training:

Participants set their own norms to guide them in three days of the training. The following were adopted:  Put off cell phones or set them on vibration or inaudible tones  Active participation in the question answer session  Cooperation among participants  Punctuality and time keeping  Adopting silence during presentations  Raise hands for any query or question  Respecting everyone’s contributions and respecting other’s views & comments. As penalty for breaking rules, participants set penalties, that defaulter would be required to present an ice breaker or share poetry or sing a song.

Madadgaar is an offshoot of Lawyers for Human Rights and Legal Aid (LHRLA). Madadgaar is Pakistan’s first Helpline for children & women suffering from violence, abuse and exploitation. Madadgaar Helpline provides telephonic counseling, face to face counseling to walk-in survivors, virtual counseling, crisis intervention, guidance, legal advises and legal aid and referral services to children and women. LHRLA is working from last 24 years and is playing an effective role in providing services to the victims of violence, abuse and exploitation particularly the children and women who are most vulnerable and disadvantaged in our society.

Madadgaar expended its network with the support of “Plan International” on national level in 2011, with the help of focal points which are working in capital cities of all four provinces: Karachi, Lahore, Peshawar and Quetta.

After a decade in service delivery Madadgaar envisions to focus on youth, especially young girls. With a dedicated approach in empowering young girls Madadgaar will have youth clubs in across Pakistan with the aim to give young girls a platform to raise their voice, as youth is the torchbearer of future and plays an important role in nation-building process.

In this session following questions were asked:

 What is the follow up mechanism of cases at helpline level?  What is the client handling procedure?  What are referral partners and who they are?  How do you gather data from newspaper report?  Explanation of 1098. Mr. Zia Awan answered all these queries. Whereas participants suggested expanding helpline working in other big cities, as there were maximum violence & abuse cases but there was not any organization like Madadgaar.

Role of Madadgaar in combating GBV & Recommendations. 175

Mr. Zia Ahmed Awan President LHRLA described the role of Madadgaar in combating GBV. He said Madadgaar National Helpline is a centre which aims to establish a protection and crisis intervention service primarily designed to cater to children, youth & women in distress. This support centre seeks to create an awareness of the rights of children, youth and women as guaranteed by the Convention on Rights of Child and Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women. Furthermore it aims to implement existing laws to provide a remedial structure to address of violations of the rights of the two groups mentioned above.

Madadgaar aims to assist, facilitate and guide victims/survivors of physical, sexual and psychological abuse and provide services which include, ranging from providing guidance on legal and medical procedures, counselling and referral networking.

The organisation creates an organisational infrastructure, which serve to protect and direct through referrals children and women clients who approach Madadgaar on its 24-hour hotline telephone service and centre facilities.

Madadgaar aims to provide a centre with a high lead of participation from the victims/survivors of violations of human rights. To achieve this end, the centre has organized a comprehensive web of inter-agency networking to make the inevitable referral process a core element of this service.

Furthermore data of all cases and client profiles are maintained both manual and through computerized software, so that the follow up of individual cases will flow smoothly.

Introduction ADB & Project Details:

Project Coordinator delivered presentation about the pilot project “Addressing Gender Based Violence in Pakistan” by Asian Development Bank (ADB).

She shared women in Pakistan are being victims to different kinds of violence like domestic violence, acid throwing, early/forced marriages, honor killing, murder, kidnapping and a lot more. The gender gap and inequality in Pakistan is too high. Even in the area of education, which is a basic right, there is gender discrimination. Therefore, to resolve these issues, ADB and LHRLA/Madadgaar have joined hands.

She further described, the unique thing of this project is formation of resource pool of lawyers in all provincial headquarters of Pakistan and they will provide legal aid to GBV victims on volunteer basis.

Whereas Madadgaar Helpline provided support to vulnerable family of honor killing’s victim. Mr. Awan was also interviewed and shared his views on the same. CNN declared Mr. Zia Awan as hero in this documentary.

Press Conference Covered By Samaa Tv:

In this video, a press conference by Madadgaar was covered by Samaa TV, where a seven-year old girl, Samina was kidnapped from Manghopir, Karachi and was made to beg on the streets. Longing for her mother, Samina first went to Edhi Center and then approached Madadgaar National Helpline. According to the head of Madadgaar, Mr. Zia Awan, the police system has failed which is evident by the exponential increase in cases of kidnapping and child abuse.

In this part of the training, Workshop Assistant 2 Ms. Bushra who is the expert of field spoke about her work and provided details of it. She deals with victims closely and decides what to do, how to do, what to send and whom to send to.

Further he added, In order to be a successful lawyer a person should be well informed about the rules and regulations of the medico-legal centers in his surroundings. The lawyer should have a strong relationship with these centers as they provide the crucial evidence of an act of violence which is the basis of a case. To be an adept lawyer one should be well aware of police ordinance 182 and must have a strong correlation with jail authorities and police stations especially its high post officers such as S.H.Os and D.I.Gs of the district in which the case is being conducted.

The lawyer should be well informed about the sections regarding human rights and the necessary actions taken upon the violation of human rights in the constitution of Pakistan. They should have a strong rapport with media associates and press clubs including having their email addresses and phone numbers which might come handy in the proceedings of a case. There should be a strong connection with high authority doctors of the health departments and with the administrator of shelter homes, as their association might prove to be of importance in dealing with a case.

A lawyer should be aware of all the medico-legal problems that can arise during a prosecution. Health department should be reported if:

 There is a delay in the submission of a final report,  There are unclear statements or irrelevant spacing between sentences in the medico-legal report,  The final and medico-legal reports are contrary to each other.

A lawyer should be aware of all the board notices that have been issued so that in case of an unusual or controversial documentation an action could be taken. Medico-legal reports should be completed and care should be taken to ensure that all the options are filled. All evidences including victim’s clothes, slides, personal belongings present on the crime scene should be sent to the laboratory for examination and the reports submitted must be verified by the lawyer to ensure that all the evidence present is reported. Clients dying declaration should be kept in record and in case of a delay an action should be taken against the person who is in-charge of it. The lawyer should verify the contents of the evidence shown in the court with the report submitted by the medico-legal officer. Every supplement report of the ML/PM report should be certified as authentic with the signature and stamp of the Additional Police Surgeon. Any information relevant to the case provided by the media or newspapers should be kept in record.

For humanitarian purpose one should send a letter to ombudsman, health secretary, chief secretary, police surgeon, medical superintendent, medico-legal officer to ensure that show cause of the court’s order is being followed. The lawyer should also make sure that women rights are protected and they are not pressurized by anyone under any circumstances.

Press Release

Lawyers united to make difference in society by tackling gender based violence: Justice (retd) Majida Rizvi

Karachi, 2nd September: No society can survive without gender justice and equality, and safeguarding the rights of children and women is necessary for the progress and prosperity of Pakistani society, said Justice (Retd) Majida Rizvi speaking as a chief guest of closing and concluding ceremony of 3 day training of lawyers to develop national resource pool to address gender based violence in Pakistan held at regent plaza, Karachi.

She lauded Lawyers for Human rights & legal Aid (LHRLA) / Madadgaar National Helpline for establishing this unique pool of lawyers at national level for tackling the gender based violence cases. She appreciated the efforts of Zia Ahmed Awan for providing lawyers a unique plate form to address this menace of society and empowering lawyers through this training. She further shared about the role of Panah Shelter home in providing protection to violence survivors.

196

Uzma Altaf, Gender Specialist from Asian Development Bank (ADB) also appreciated the efforts made by the project and acknowledged the motivation of participants for addressing gender based violence in their respective provinces.

Zia Ahmed Awan President LHRLA and Founder of Madadgaar National Helpline shared the rationale behind establishing pool of lawyers for addressing gender based violence. While providing legal help and crisis intervention services, LHRLA/Madadgaar come across many constraints such as lack of availability of legal help outside the organization and increasing number of victims who approach organization to seek legal help. Every first victim needs legal aid to get justice but non-availability of effective mechanisms left them with no hope. Therefore, LHRLA has developed pool of lawyers to address gender based violence in Pakistan. The unique thing of this pool is that they will provide free legal aid to survivors.

Twenty eight lawyers from Pakistan's four provinces, 21 of them women lawyers, were trained in handling gender-based violence cases. Participants were introduced to gender-sensitive counseling, related national & international laws and investigation techniques, forensic and medico-legal requirements and evidence needed in gender-based violence cases. LHRLA/Madadgaar formalized their commitment by signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the volunteer lawyers.

At the end of the ceremony, Justice (retd) Majida Rizvi distributed the certificates in participants lawyers on successful completion of 3 day training workshop.

Case Study #1

On 19th July 2013, 40 years old woman X, resident of Y, visited Madadgaar National Helpline for assistance.

She informed that she got married to Mohammad Nawaz in 2010, she was widow with three kids at the time of second marriage Nawaz who had a wife but no kids approach her parent and gave guarantee to provide protection and care to her and children.

After marriage he did not pay attention to her and spend most of the time with his first wife. One day her brother in law Abdul Khalid sexually assault her all the family members gathered in the room. Her husband instructed Shabana to remain silent but she informed her parents about the incident.

One day her nephew Faheem Gopang came to meet her and left in the evening the next day her in-laws blamed her with illegal relation with Faheem and state that he stayed overnight with her, which was an allegation as that day Faheem was on his night duty.

The in-laws shabana declared her Kari with Faheem and tried to kill her. She escaped from there but Mohammad Nawaz took hold of their 2 kids, and reached at her mother’s home, but offenders threatened her parents to give their custody in the name of family norms otherwise they will kill other family members as well.

She ask for protection and help from Madadgaar’s Madadgaar immediately took action against and filed a FIR # 122/2013 in PS Bin Qasim against the charge of attempting murder and false declaration of bad character. Madadgaar offered to refer her to any shelter home but her family didn’t find it appropriate and prohibited to go.

Case Study # 2

Shahida is a client of Madadgaar Helpline .She was a victim of Cyber Crime. She had life threats due to which Madadgaar provided shelter in Panah. She had registered FIR In PS KIA, but Investigation officer didn’t take any action against offender under section Cyber Crime act. Madadgaar wrote a letter to DIG East Police and Inspector General Police Sindh to take action according to Cyber Crime Act .For further action Madadgaar also sent a letter to Director FIA Sindh.

She was shifted in EDHI with her children by Madadgaar. She didn’t want her children to live with her due to the life threats therefore she requested Madadgaar to help provide save shelter for her children .By the help of Madadgaar her children were sent in Azad Foundation for good Education and Health.

On 6th August 2013, a man named Muhammed Jameel reached Madadgaar’s office. He quoted that his neighbor, Jahanzaib, kidnapped his 4 years old son named Mudassir, took him behind the 258 bushes and physically and sexually abused, tortured, sodomized, and tried to kill by tightening a rope around his neck. The culprit thought that the child had died and secretly disappeared from the scene. The other neighbors and children saw the victim being tagged along somewhere before the beginning of such heart wrenching incident. After the culprit was beaten up, he disclosed the entire plot. Upon reaching the place, fortunately the innocent and pure child was semi conscious when found. The case has been filed at Sarjani Police Station, FIR: 410/13 and the culprit have been arrested. The Operation Police did not mention about the major immoral acts of kidnapping and attempt to murder and only specified about the ‘attempt of sodomy’ committed by the culprit which is solely unfair and unjust.

In the darkness of this situation, Madadgar took much interest in this grave matter, helped the family in police investigation which led the offender get caught and are the hearings are still in progress, the entire motto being that affected families who await justice, may get what they deserve.

Lastly, we thank CNBC Pakistan which played a key role with whose help this case was forwarded to Madadgaar. Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile…

Case Study #3

Just a day before eid, when every house was glittered with the happiness of the day coming ahead, among all the glowing houses, there was one house where the light had lost its glow, the smiles faded and the moments wrapped in dust.

A family whose son named ‘Baqar’ got kidnapped 25 days before eid. A report of a child was received at the ‘missing children desk’ department a day before eid, and the description of the appearance and age that was told exactly matched with the report filed of the child who was abducted 25 days back before eid. The little boy was found in a very sorry situation, and was concluded that he was kidnapped by a gang who would trap such kids and make them beg in different areas of different cities, a note was hung around his neck through which people would feel pity and give him money, and make such gangs successful in their mission

Fortunately a gift of happiness; their son was safely handed to the family which landed them in paradise and completed the feelings of eid

The ‘missing children desk’ plays a vital role in keeping everyday reports that are filed as ‘missing’. Ms Bushra Sayyed, who heads this desk, gives her best to keep the track; because of her hard work, she helps the smiles to grow deeper.

Memorandum of Understanding

Memorandum of Understanding Between LHRLA/Madadgaar & Resource Pool Lawyers

Lawyers for Human Rights and Legal Aid (LHRLA)/ Madadgaar National Helpline:

LHRLA was established in 1989 in Karachi with the objective of providing free legal services and offering preventive/remedial assistance to the women and child victims of violence and abuse. LHRLA sensitized the increasing demand for preserving women and child rights and extended its services in the form of Madadgaar National Helpline. Madadgaar has the prestige of being Pakistan’s first helpline for the children, women and youth suffering from violence, abuse and exploitation. Madadgaar and LHRLA are affiliated with several networks that are working for children and women at national, regional and International level.

Resource Pool of Lawyers:

LHRLA and Madadgaar National helpline has developed resource pool of lawyers to address the growing incidence of Gender Based Violence (GBV) by facilitating the survivors of GBV in Pakistan. The purpose of resource pool is to build a network of activist lawyers who can provide services to the survivors of GBV. The best part of this activity is that lawyers while sitting in their offices will be in contact with us via online database. Paralegals are also expected to network with existing legal establishments in society and they are supposed to make appropriate referral for the protection of GBV victims. Every lawyer will have to sign a MOU and undertaking for their commitment to deal with the GBV cases.

Role of LHRLA/Madadgaar:

LHRLA/ Madadgaar will empower the selected lawyers of resource pool through building their capacity on issues of Gender based violence and related national and international laws. LHRLA will bear the all cost of training and exposure visits. Experts will be invited as resource persons and exposure visit will be held to increase lawyer’s knowledge on related issues by LHRLA. After training sessions, Madadgaar will organize a ceremony to introduce resource pool at mass level. Madadgaar will manage the history of cases dealt by resource pool lawyers through database and will organize session for progress sharing with resource pool at national level. LHRLA will work virtually at national level to get information about court and legal cases from resource pool of lawyers.

268

Role of Resource Pool Lawyers:

Resource pool will facilitate the GBV cases by providing them legal assistance and will develop their capacity about GBV issues and laws. Resource Pool’s lawyers are responsible to update and maintain the client details, history and service provided to clients on online database. Moreover, they will update LHRLA about the free and charged cases and will send documents to LHRLA for updating of data. The lawyers have to deal minimum 2 cases for which they will be paid miscellaneous cost for the case. Besides this, the resource pool has to take extra cases (approx. 3) on voluntary basis.

Signing of MOU:

Every lawyer will have to sign a MOU and undertaking for their commitment to deal with the GBV cases.
