"Women Engineers Pakistan is taking up the mammoth task of bringing enlightenment to the youth of Pakistan in areas that, although of immense importance, gain little attention. Having gone through the difficult period of planning a career and deciding the direction I need to take during my studies, I'm aware of the hardships, confusions and indecisiveness that accompanies this task. In our society, some of these difficulties are created more so by social norms rather than internal conflicts; faced with unending advice on how Civil Engineering was not a woman's plate yet a desire to pursue this field, I am aware of the external factors that deter our resolve. But perseverance pays off, and that's what I'm here to share. With this platform, young and prospective engineers of Pakistan can find a guiding light, and a motivation to pursue their goals in this field, and we are here to support them. It is time to shift, to challenge the stereotypes and make Pakistan the hub of technological advancements, harboring the talent that abounds our land. As a fellow engineer, it's my ambition to play my role as an agent of positive change in Engineering industry of Pakistan."

- Miss Irsa Anwar, Civil Engineer.
