Abstract

Many feminists across Pakistan joined a Women’s March on International Women’s Day in the capital and other major cities demanding gender equality and decrying sexual harassment and gender-based violence. While the aims and motivations of the organisers were to support and liberate women suffering multiple forms of oppression Shah Meer Baloch (LSE, MSc Media and Communications) argues that there was an imbalance between the aims and the lack of inclusivity of those marching.
