\nDr. Samina said that these traditional laws often lead to women\u2019s rights or finances. He said that due to lack of legal demarcation of land in the tribal districts and inadequate capacity of state institutions at the district level, it was difficult to determine the share of women in the distribution of land and property. Union Afridi of the Khadim-ul-Amalq Foundation, representing social organizations, highlighted the ongoing district-level awareness activities under the \u201cDakhor Surkha\u201d project and also spoke about the interest and positive results of local conferences in these activities.
