Training on the elimination of all forms of discrimination toward women

 

Following research held on harmful traditional practices and forms of violence against women, which infringe their basic human rights, discrimination toward women is observed in all levels and dimensions of social life.  Supported by the baneful customs, traditional practices and ill –laws which denying the equality between women and men to enjoy the same rights and opportunities, Women are treated as dependent object and servant of men.

 

This consideration leads women to live in the scopes of inequalities in education, economy, leadership, Employment etc.. :

 

All this is the result of accepting baneful customs and practices and are taking effect because of the ignorance of women in the field of human rights and the available instruments protecting women’s rights in either national and international levels.
