Tehrik-e-Niswan
Tehrik-e-Niswan () (The Women's Movement) is a women's organization in Pakistan. Tehrik-e-Niswan was formed in 1979 in Karachi, Sindh by Sheema Kermani. Tehrik-e-Niswan was founded in 1979 to use the performing arts as a medium for giving Rights messages to working class women and the marginalized communities. Soon after its formation, in 1980, Zia-ul-Haq's regime, banned the dance performances, Tehrik used performances as a medium for spreading the message of peace, equality and harmony for women.
