CFHR

A youth and women-led research, advocacy, and capacity-building organisation advancing human rights and rule of law in Pakistan.

[CFHR @CFHR_Pak]

For over a decade, CFHR has worked on critical and complex issues — often so immersed in the process that we rarely paused to share the journey. In the last few months, we took the time to reflect, consolidate, and open up our work to a wider audience.

Happy Independence Day!
Celebrating freedom, unity, and resilience ✨

This #IYD2025, we celebrate Pakistan’s greatest force for change — its youth. With 67% under 30, they’re reshaping justice, rights & equality today. With CFHR, they’re driving dialogue, research & inclusive communities. #InternationalYouthDay #YouthDay

None of this would have been possible without the people who shaped this journey. We’re deeply grateful to the CFHR family — the team, partners, and communities who continue to make this work possible.

The Centre for Human Rights presents the 8th volume of it's Human Rights Review.

This year's thematic edition focuses on women’s marriage rights in Pakistan.

The journal can be accessed here: https://t.co/dcLDp5NPtz

[CFHR @CFHR_Pak]

One of the ways to do this is to talk about your rights with your spouse-to-be or any other member of the family that can support you in taking this conversation forward.

#KnowYourRights #NikkahnamaParho #QaboolHai #MarriageRights

[CFHR @CFHR_Pak]

While the law provides a number of rights for both parties in the marriage, societal norms and biases impact the ability of women securing these rights. There is resistance to women asking for these rights, and common phrases or taanay include

[CFHR @CFHR_Pak]

“Usnay talaq ka haq kaisay mang liya?” & “Larkiyan aese mamloon mein nahi bola karti!”.

We believe that knowledge of your rights needs to be balanced with the ability to enforce them and break free of these common misconceptions and stereotypes.
