‘For the first time, I felt free’: Pakistan’s women-led livestock market

In rural provinces, women have always reared animals but are excluded from selling them. A new market is changing attitudes

On Saturday, Rozina Ghulam Mustafa arrived at the market in Tando Allahyar city, Pakistan's Sindh province, to sell the goats she had raised, milked and fed.

Usually her brother sells the animals, but he sold them too cheaply because he didn't know their true value. He has always sold our goats at a much lower price," she says, standing inside an enclosure with 15 of them.
