Begum Jan is a doctor and the founder of the Tribal Women Welfare Association, which educates tribal women in Northwest Pakistan about their rights, and gives them medical training. ^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] She grew up in South Waziristan, a conservative area of Pakistan, but her father encouraged her to become a doctor. ^[4] She attended a school for boys as a child because there was no school for girls, and when her tribal elders forbid her to attend high school she studied with a tutor instead. ^[3]

In 2007, at a nationwide women’s protest against clerics advocating suicide bombings and other violence, Jan led the Tribal Women Welfare Association's protest. ^[5] As of 2008 she is the Tribal Women Welfare Association's chairwoman. ^[1]

She received a 2008 International Women of Courage Award, making her the first Pakistani woman to receive that award. ^[2] ^[3]
