WLUML - Women Living Under Muslim Laws
WLUML has received this very useful and important publication, and has
added the English and Arabic versions to its website for you to
download.
"The Status of Women in Iraq, An Assessment of
Iraq’s De Jure and De Facto Compliance with International Legal
Standards," was published in July 2005 by the Iraq Legal
Development Project of the American Bar Association. It was produced by a team
of people, including Kelly Fleck, Sawsan Gharaibeh, Aline Matta and Yasmine
Rassem with assistance from many Iraqi legal experts. The opinions expressed in
the book are those of the authors.
It is a very welcome publication as it
provides, in one volume, a great deal of factual information and background that
is still desperately needed by those working on issues relating to women In
Iraq.
