}}

Tahira Abdullah is a Pakistani human rights activist, social scientist and supporter of gender equality, who is a representative of the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HCRP) and the Women's Action Forum (WAF).[1][2] Although she says she is not a politician, she has been a supporter of the Pakistan People's Party[3] and was close to Benazir Bhutto.[4] She is based in Islamabad.

Tahira Abdullah works on a voluntary basis for numerous trusts, policy groups and academic bodies.[2] Topics on which she has spoken or made representations on behalf of HCRP have included “opening up spaces for women human rights defenders”,[5] in response to the murder of Rashid Rehman in 2014.

In February 2009 Abdullah was arrested during a protest meeting in Islamabad.[6] In 2014 she opposed the actions of the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) in closing down a private TV station for a fortnight for allegedly broadcasting blasphemous content; Abdullah's view was that "this is not the answer".[7] She was involved in formulating the HCRP's response to the Kasur child sexual abuse scandal, and commented that "“One child missing is one child to many”.[8]

In 2017 she criticised fellow human rights activist Ayesha Gulalai for her allegations against Imran Khan.[3] In political terms, she has said that "the left has to change its meta-narrative".[9]
