Abstract
Human capital formation by Pakistani women in Germany (as compared to Pakistani men)
Human capital is formed by investment in education, training, and knowledge. Education plays a vital role in raising the income of a person. We cannot deny the reality of investment in female’s education. Now-a-days government of Pakistan and International organizations like (DAAD) is offering scholarships to male and female students for going abroad, especially in Germany, in order to increase this asset. 44.7 percent of total Pakistani migrants are females. Many Pakistani women also have migrated internationally to join husbands or fathers, only few of them migrate for jobs. There is an increasing migration trend among Pakistani males for the purpose of education and work. The Pakistani women’s in Germany are receiving better on-job-training and exposure to work in an international community. This training brings a positive attitude toward taking up jobs in Pakistan. After having studied or worked in an international environment, Pakistani males also show a more positive and polite attitude towards female labour market participation. Education of father, mother and spouse has a positive effect on the education of their children.
