Mrs. Pakistan World is the foremost beauty pageant for married women of Pakistani descent. Founder, Sonia Ahmed created the pageant as a spin off to the successful Miss Pakistan World in 2006[1]. The pageant organizers aspires to enhance "progressive" Pakistani women's goal of achieving "liberation" in what they consider an oppressive society[2].
The pageant allows delegates from around the world to compete in the pageant[3][4] and move on to represent Pakistan in international pageants such as Mrs. World and Mrs. Globe[5][6]. Delegates must be of Pakistani origin with a valid Pakistani passport in order to compete.[7]
In the past few years there have been four international pageants completed by Mrs. Pakistan World since 2007,when the pageant came into existence with Mrs. Pakistan World 2010 - Tahmena Bokhari[8] winning Mrs. United Nations 2010 in Negril, Jamaica[9]. This was considered a great win for the Mrs. Pakistan World company as this was the first title won by Pakistan in 8 years.
