Pakistan to Host 9th OIC Ministerial Conference on Women
Pakistan is set to host the 9th Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Ministerial Conference on Women in Islamabad, bringing together representatives from across the Muslim world for a two-day meeting focused on women's development and empowerment.
Around 190 delegates from the OIC's 57 member states are expected to participate, including ministers, senior government officials, observers, and distinguished women leaders.
The conference will provide an opportunity for member countries to strengthen dialogue and cooperation on issues affecting women.
Hosting the event reflects Pakistan's role in facilitating international discussions on social development and collaboration within the OIC.
The ministerial conference will address a wide range of topics aimed at promoting greater opportunities for women across OIC member states. Discussions will explore ways to strengthen women's participation in political, economic, and professional spheres.
Delegates are also expected to examine policies that improve access to financial resources, encourage entrepreneurship, and reduce barriers preventing women from participating fully in national development.
Another important area of discussion will be digital inclusion, with participants considering strategies to bridge technology gaps and expand women's access to digital skills and opportunities.
The conference will serve as a platform for participating countries to exchange experiences, share successful policy initiatives, and assess progress made in advancing women's rights since previous OIC meetings.
Representatives are expected to discuss practical approaches for strengthening cooperation among member states while developing frameworks that support long-term social and economic inclusion for women.
The outcomes of the conference are intended to encourage closer collaboration and help guide future initiatives across the Islamic world.
In preparation for the conference, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Senator Ishaq Dar chaired a high-level meeting to review arrangements for the event.
Officials evaluated planning related to logistics, security, delegate services, protocol, media coordination, and overall event management.
The government has emphasized providing a smooth experience for international delegations while ensuring that all conference activities are conducted efficiently.
Held every three to four years, the OIC Ministerial Conference on Women serves as an important forum for advancing dialogue on women's empowerment and strengthening cooperation among member states.
