Or in the event we do not have the information, we can contact the speaker to provide and share.

why Kalida Brohi

When she was a teenager in the Balochistan region of Pakistan, Khalida Brohi witnessed the honor killing of her friend, who had married for love. Today, she’s the founder and executive director of the Sughar Empowerment Society. The nonprofit, whose name means “skilled and confident woman”, provides Pakistani tribal women with the education, skills, and income opportunities to empower them to take a leadership role in their households, their communities, and the world.

As she works to reduce endemic violence against women at substantial personal risk, she says, “Not doing this work would kill me. Doing this work would keep me alive.”
