dc.description.abstractThis current study investigates feminist movement and women empowerment in Pakistan through an analysis of 200 respondent aged 18 to 35 years, with diverse educational backgrounds through structured questionnaires. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was run to identify the key factors influencing these perceptions, including the importance of equal opportunities, urban-rural disparities, and the roles of feminism and women's rights organizations. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy was 0.633, and Bartlett's Test of Sphericity was significant (p = 0.0005), confirming the data's suitability for factor analysis. Moreover, “Intersectionality” Theory was applied in context of women empowerment and feminist movement. The findings reveal a prevalent recognition of gender disparities, with respondents acknowledging the under-representation of women, wage disparities between urban and rural areas, and the impact of patriarchal structures on women's opportunities.
