Begum Zari Sarfaraz (28 July 1923 – 27 April 2008) was a noted early political activist and committed social worker of North-West Frontier Province (now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa), Pakistan.
Zari Sarfaraz was born in 28 July 1923, to a wealthy Pashtun family of Mardan, in the North West Frontier Province (now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in present-day Pakistan) of British India.
She was the eldest of 3 surviving children, and the elder sister of the late Mir Afzal Khan, a former chief minister of NWFP and former senator.

As a child, she was sent as a full boarder pupil to the Presentation Convent School, Srinagar, and after completing her higher secondary schooling, she returned home to Mardan.
She aspired to become a medical doctor, but her father's early and untimely death forced her to adopt the main role in managing the family property and businesses.
Zari Sarfaraz was briefly married to a relative at the age of 19, who died a mere 18 months into their marriage.

After Partition and the Independence of Pakistan in 1947, she remained an active political worker and leader of the Muslim League and was in due course elected as a member of the West Pakistan National Assembly in 1962.
She continued politics in till her retirement in 1969 when she got “aloof” from it, as the “style and pattern” of politics had changed
During the presidency of Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, she headed the 15-member Pakistan National Commission on the Status of Women in 1985 and recommended drastic changes in the existing laws to end discrimination against women.
During this time, she also served as the Federal Minister for Women Development.
