Abstract

The Right to Education for women is a part of human rights, where the right to education is considered essential for individuals to meet their educational needs and achieve their desired level of education. Women's right to education in Pakistan has become a significant issue due to various socio-economic and cultural barriers. This article examines the educational disparity between men and women in Pakistan, driven by social, cultural, and economic factors. Patriarchal cultural norms, poverty, and the lack of educational facilities are the main obstacles for women in accessing quality education. Furthermore, social stigma and traditional gender roles also limit their participation in education and social life. The Malala Fund, founded by Malala Yousafzai after the Taliban attack in 2012, has emerged as a leading force in advocating for women's right to education. The Malala Fund aims to reduce the gender gap in education by providing financial support, strengthening local programs, and raising global awareness about the importance of girls' education. Collaborations with UNESCO, NGOs, and the Pakistani government have laid the foundation for creating meaningful change for women, especially in rural areas with limited infrastructure. Although there has been progress in advocating for women's right to education, significant challenges remain, particularly related to patriarchal cultural norms, limited resources, and government policies that are not yet fully optimized. This research employs a qualitative descriptive model, with data collection through secondary sources or literature reviews from books, journals, news articles, and official websites.

Abstract

The Israeli intervention that occurred in Gaza in 2023 caused a wave of reactions from countries and the global community, showing differences in orientation and approach. Since the war, the global public has shown a strong reaction to Israeli attacks on civilians and has demanded a ceasefire for humanitarian reasons. In contrast, states have been divided into those who joined to condemn Israel and others who supported Israel. This article comparatively analyses the response of the state and the international public to genocide in Gaza from the perspective of nationalism and cosmopolitanism. Nationalism focuses on prioritizing the state interest over others, whereas cosmopolitanism addresses individual rights as the most important thing in global politics. This study uses qualitative methods to interpret the varieties of the states and publics by collecting online documents from websites, journals, and media. This study found that countries tend to act based on national interests, geopolitical considerations, strategic alliances, and domestic stability. Even among Muslim countries and supporters of Palestine, the attitudes shown are often ineffective because they are shackled by domestic political and economic calculations. Instead, the global public displayed strong cosmopolitan solidarity through demonstrations, digital campaigns, and economic boycotts as a form of defence of human rights and universal justice. The tension between a nationalistic approach to the state and a cosmopolitan public response indicates a wide gap between the state and the public stance toward the Gaza genocide.
