Among them the issue of poverty ranks at the top. The available statistics confirm an increase in the incidence of poverty in the country in recent years. Furthermore, rural women are the most vulnerable groups to the poverty incidence. They are denied access to productive resources most especially credit. Micro credit is now a proven strategy for the poverty alleviation among poor rural women. In other words, the micro- credit enables the beneficiaries get out of the vicious circle of poverty. The conventional credit programs only provide a limited amount of credit to rural women. The establishment of special credit programs targeting poor rural women is the need of the hour. Both Government and Non Government Organization need to handle this problem. Women Development: Pakistan is confronted with many social as well as economic problems. The root cause of almost all these issues is the rapidly growing poverty in the country which has now arrived at an alarming situation. To combat this menace the country requires exploitation of all its resources in order to attain the desirable level of socio-economic development. In a situation where capital resources are very scarce, human resources can go a long way in * The authors are lecturer Commerce Department and Assistant Professor Economics Department University of Balochistan , Quetta respectively. - 10 - attaining such objectives. In Pakistan, human resources are in abundance and extensive efforts are required for the development and utilization of such useful asset. The women folk form about 50% of the total population of the country, whereas their participation in economic activities is minimal. If seen in historical perspective, it becomes clear that the situation with regard to female labour force participation has not improved much. Keeping in view the above historical fact, there is now a growing realization in the country that the dream of sustainable development cannot materialize until and unless women are made to play an active role in the economy. Situation Analysis in Balochistan: It is a common concept in Balochistan that women are “just housewives and are not playing any significant role at the economic front. But various studies show that women play a crucial role in the rural economy, including agriculture, livestock, and cottage industries. They play far more active role in the rural economy than is generally believed. Women undertake a wide range of activities both in the field and at home. Although their involvement in farm work is lowest in the earlier stages of crop production when field preparation is largely undertaken by men but in the later stages of the production cycle in the harvesting and post harvesting phase their participation is very high. Home based post harvest operations such as drying, cleaning, and storage of grains are almost exclusively carried out by women. Their contribution is also significant in seed preparation, collecting farm yard manure, weeding, harvesting, and various other farm operations. Their involvement towards looking after the livestock and poultry is remarkable. Women take primary responsibility for cutting fodder, cleaning sheds, processing of animal products and care of sick animals. They look after the herds, do the milking, collect wool, spin it and make bi- products, and are also involved in weaving and so on. Besides the above mentioned economic activities, on direct income generating side many women are engaged in rural non-farm economic activities like handicrafts, embroidery, quilt making, wool spinning, and tailoring, etc. The irony is that, most of the official data on women’s work in the rural economy do not present the real picture of women participation in economic activities and show unbelievably low female labor force participation rates. Even the Annual Labour Force Surveys gives a low rural female labour force participation rate. More or less the same is the case of population census which shows a massive underestimation regarding the rural female labour force participation rate. - 11 - In spite
