Women Democratic Front (WDF) is a Pakistani independent socialist-feminist organization. It was founded in the federal capital Islamabad on March 8, 2018,[2] by hundreds of delegates from Sindh, Balochistan, Punjab and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.[1]

WDF aims to unite women across the country to build a socialist feminist[3] movement to transform the International Women's Day celebration in Pakistan into real means of action.[1] The manifesto and constitution of WDF strives to a broad-based struggle against capitalism, patriarchy, religious fascism, national oppression and Pakistan's authoritarian political system.[4]

The Front was inaugurated on International Women's Day, 2018,[5] when a large number of students, working women, intellectuals and political activists gathered for Aurat Azadi March, 2018.
