By Sajjad Akhtar on December 15, 2011

This study quantifies the trends in the population of HBWs in Pakistan, by urban/rural, province and gender, and also analyzes the last 10 year socio-economic-demographic profile of HBWs, generated from the past Labour Force Surveys. In addition, it includes findings of a sample survey of HBW households in the Islamabad/Rawalpindi to document the various deficits faced by the HBWs.
