The Asian University for Women's mission is based on the firm belief that education, especially higher education, is a critical pathway to sustainable development, economic progress, and social and political equity for underprivileged communities. The University will educate promising young women of diverse cultural, religious, ethnic, and socio-economic backgrounds from across South and South-East Asia and the Middle East, with a particular emphasis on the inclusion of women from poor, rural, and marginalized communities. AUW seeks to cultivate future leaders whose life experiences will combine with an extraordinary education to help them address the imperatives of social and economic advancement in Asia, and will in turn elevate the status of women in society.
Over the next six years, Unique Zan Foundation is committed to supporting five women students from both Pakistan and Afghanistan to complete their studies at the Asian University for women.
