The Life of tribal girls is not much different from Pukhtoon Girls elsewhere.But compared to Girls and ladies In Khyberpukhtoonkhwa and Afghan cities the tribal and FATA Girls have more difficulties to face if they want to become equally educated because there is a problem with infrastructure of educational institutions. If an institute is available at all there is shortage of teaching staff and facilities. The reason for non availability of teaching staff is the scarcity of local educated girls and ladies from other settled district of khyber Pukhtoonkhwa dont willingly join the female schools and colleges because of bad security situation and accessibility problems.
There still are some areas in FATA where there are sociocultural hurdles for female education.
The health issues of tribal Ladies are also not satisfactory, lady doctors from other areas of Pakistan dont want to perform their duties in FATA. Even Pukhtoon lady doctors, whose culture and language are just similar to FATA women dont easily accept Jobs in FATA. As a result of non availability of qualified doctors, semi qualified and non qualified LHVs, LHWs and quacks provide health care facilities to the women of FATA. Some times this practice endanger the life of Tribal women, specially pregnant women, if there is any serious complication with their pregnancy
