    The future of Afghan women after the Taliban

    Faza Qadiri / October 25, 2021

    Though the Taliban have publicly announced that women will still have rights, however, they did not clarify what rights mean in their context.   Life for women living even in a western and developed country like the UK is not always easy just because they are women. This is not to say men don’t face gender…

    Alternative Forms of Justice for Victim-Survivors of Sexual Violence

    Abi Richards / May 29, 2021

    Seeking justice after experiencing sexual violence can be a complex process for victim-survivors. For many, seeking conventional justice (through a criminal justice system) can provide a strong sense of reclaimed physical space in their lives. However, for some this may not be the right decision. Indeed, for many victim-survivors around the world, turning towards a justice…

    Turkey Withdraws From the Istanbul Convention Putting Women’s Rights At Great Risk

    Abi Richards / April 24, 2021

    On the 20th of March 2021, Turkey announced its withdrawal from the Istanbul Convention. Sparking international outrage, the withdrawal acts as a disappointing setback to the progress of gender equality. Putting Turkish women’s rights in a precarious position, the Turkish government has demonstrated its lack of dedication to ending violence against women and domestic violence. This…

    Widowhood Practices In Nigeria And Abuse Of Women’s Right

    Amaka Elochukwu / March 29, 2021

    Widowhood is a tragedy that befalls a married person as a result of the timely or untimely death of the spouse.  In many cultures, widowhood in women is considered as stigma and widows as inauspicious. Various tribes and cultures in Nigeria have diverse ways of practicing rites pertaining to burial, but traditions are particularly hard on…

    Ekaterina Zemskova / February 10, 2021

    The reproductive rights of women in Poland have become a widely discussed topic in recent months.
