Pakistan and India: Dowry Dynamics, Laws, Culture, and the Changing Social Landscape

Dowry remains one of the most persistent and damaging social issues across South Asia. Despite legal reforms and growing awareness, the practice continues to shape gender norms, family expectations, and women’s lived experiences in Pakistan and India. Hosted by Nowsheen Khurram with Dr. Rakhshinda Perveen, an intersectional feminist and expert on Gender-Based Violence (GBV), this episode takes a deep dive into the cultural, historical, and legal dimensions of the dowry system in both countries. Together, we explore: • How dowry evolved historically in South Asia • The cultural and economic pressures that sustain the practice • Legal frameworks addressing dowry-related violence in Pakistan and India • The intersectional impacts on women, especially from marginalized communities • What meaningful reform and social change could look like This cross-border discussion aims to highlight the urgent need for stronger protection, social awareness, and gender-just policies to end dowry-related harm. #dowry #dowrysystem #pakistan #india #womenrights #southasia #genderjustice #EndDowry #stopdowry #womenempowerment #humanrights #gbv #genderbasedviolence #violenceagainstwomenact #legalreforms #feminism #Intersectionality #southasianculture #MarriagePractices #socialissues #awareness #podcast #talkshow #cpdi
