World Women Judges Day observed<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

\n

ISLAMABAD: Like other parts of the world \u201cWomen Judges Day\u201d was celebrated here on Sunday. Despite women\u2019s increased engagement in public life, they remain significantly under-represented in decision-making positions. In fact, a relatively small number of women have been, or are part of, the judiciary, particularly at senior judicial leadership positions.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s representation in the judiciary is key to ensuring that courts represent their citizens, address their concerns and hand down sound judgments. By their mere presence, women judges enhance the legitimacy of courts, sending a powerful signal that they are open and accessible to those who seek recourse to justice.<\/p>\n

The entry of women judges into spaces from which they had historically been excluded has been a positive step in the direction of judiciaries being perceived as being more transparent, inclusive, and representative of the people whose lives they affect.<\/p>\n

By marking the day, we will reaffirm our commitment to develop and implement appropriate and effective national strategies and plans for the advancement of women in judicial justice systems and institutions at the leadership, managerial and other levels.<\/p>\n

Theme of the days this year was \u201cWomen in Justice, women for justice\u201d to promote the equal participation of women at all levels of the judiciary, to celebrate the progress that has been made and raise awareness about the challenges ahead.<\/p>\n
