For my research project, I decided to take Pakistan as a case to look at societal impacts of female economic empowerment. As I researched for data, I started to see that my research was revolving around the work of certain figures (Malala, Mukhtar Mai) who are famous for their work for female empowerment in Pakistan. I finally accepted the fact that evaluating societal change will be difficult, if possible at all. Therefore, my solution to this was to look at my topic with a different angle, so now I am planning to look at the role of female iconic figures such as Malala and Mukhtar Mai in empowering females in Pakistan. This changes my original independent and dependent variable, therefore, my topic has in a way changed as per how the data has lead me so far but I feel more satisfied with my current angle of this topic.
In this blog the AU Global Scholars document their efforts in applying rigorous research methods to their projects in the field of international studies. The aim is to briefly present a challenge that they encountered AND the solution they came up with, such that their peers can respond and/or learn.
