Abstract

Using Galtung's theories of conflict, this dissertation will investigate gender discrimination in the province of Sindh in Pakistan. Sindh resides in Pakistan. This article delves deeply into the various factors, such as the region's history, society, economy, and politics that contribute to the region's gender disparity. It analyzes the ways in which sexism effects women in Sindh and identifies the knowledge gaps that exist in the existing body of literature. Using Galtung's Three Triangle Models of Conflict Resolution, particularly structural violence, cultural violence, and direct violence, the purpose of this research is to gain a deeper understanding of the causes and dynamics of gender discrimination. This will be achieved by implementing Galtung's Three Triangle Models for Conflict Resolution. In addition, the Conflict Tree Model is utilized to propose strategies and interventions for addressing gender inequality in Sindh. We provide some insights into the complexity of the problem of gender discrimination, as well as suggestions for future research and activities in this area.
