The human rights of women in The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) have been a subject of unresolved debate among sociologists, economists, and political scientists alike, as this region s gender related human rights performance remains uniquely weaker compared to other geographic regions in the world.

This study assesses gender inequity in the MENA region from a legal perspective, with a focus on family law and legal pluralism, shedding light on domestic legal institutions as a means of influencing the economic and political status of women both in the Middle East and globally.
