The Culture of Poverty Practiced Among Christian Women in the Slums of Islamabad

Abstract

In the face of significant social constraints, the purpose of this research is to investigate the ways in which marginalized communities, and particularly Christian women who live in slums, carve out socio-economic niches for themselves. The purpose of this study is to investigate the methods that they employ in order to navigate socio-environmental challenges and to assert their presence within the larger framework of society. The purpose of this study is to make a contribution to discussions on minority rights, support for communities that are socioeconomically disadvantaged, public health, and environmental justice by incorporating the perspectives of these marginalized groups. We anticipate that the findings of this research will contribute to a better understanding of the dynamics that exist between different castes in urban environments, as well as to the development of a discourse on issues of social justice and sustainability. This study highlights the persistent issues of discrimination and marginalization by conducting a detailed examination of the lived experiences of Christian women living in the slums of Islamabad. Additionally, the study proposes pathways towards more inclusive and equitable societal structures. A detailed examination of these experiences is presented in this study.
