Abstract
There is a growing realization that sustainable development cannot take place without the active role of women in the economic activities of the province. Although women in Balochistan, are contributing more, the official documents badly underestimate her contribution in economic activities. At district level both in Mastung and Pishin, along with her daily chores at home, women equally participates in the economic activities like handicraft, poultry rearing, cattle rearing, sewing and teaching. Women in these two districts receive very meagre amount of income out of these activities. The main factors responsible for this state of affairs include limited marketing facilities, small scale production, poor access to credit institutions, and limited mobility of women.
