Dear connections, Iam pleased to share the publication of my paper titled "An Analysis of Desirability of Uniform Civil Code in the Context of India’s Religious Personal Laws and Gender Equality" published at IJLSI - International journal of Legal science and innovation. This article will look at the complex relationship between gender equality and the UCC, including its historical context, challenges, opportunities, and possible future paths. Many aspects were examined such as the rational behind implementing it and the necessity of those laws to govern citizens and other aspects which are still common in some castes and groups. If possible give it a read and looking forward for valuable feedback. Quick Link: <https://lnkd.in/ghXKJGhd>

I have Successfully completed an intensive course on Gender and Law, which provided a comprehensive understanding of how legal frameworks intersect with gender issues. This course covered key topics including: Gender Equality Legislation: Analysis of national and international laws aimed at promoting gender equality and combating discrimination. Legal Protections for Marginalized Groups: Examination of legal rights and protections for women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and other marginalized communities. Case Studies and Jurisprudence: Review of landmark legal cases and their impact on gender rights and justice. Policy Development: Insights into the formulation and implementation of policies that address gender disparities and promote inclusivity. Advocacy and Reform: Strategies for advocating gender-sensitive reforms and influencing legal and policy changes. The course enhanced my understanding of gender-related legal issues and equipped me with skills to contribute effectively to gender equality initiatives within legal and organizational contexts.

Learning and Comprehending the topic "Gender Norms and Harmful Traditional Practices in Ethiopia". Through this session, I got an insight on Female Genital Mutilation(FGM), child marriage and role of men and every individual in promoting gender equality. Also being a person of Medical Fraternity,I could relate how FGM in particular affects a womanhood in terms of physical,mental and psychological aspects. Although it has been outlaw in policies and legal papersheets; still the practice is being followed in some regions of the world. I believe education, awareness, cultural intervention and strict implementations of laws should be done to gradually decline the deeply rooted practices.

Ahead of #IWD2024 this week, we’re taking a closer look at the global issue of backlash against gains for women’s and LGBTQ+ rights.

Trigger warning... "There are only two genders. Find God.” “I’m not mentally ill.” “I was born male, I’m a man. You don’t get to pick your gender.” These are some of the responses Sydney McNeill, our Director of JEDI Strategy has come across from when AndHumanity, Inclusive Marketing Agency has done research/community engagement work for our clients.

Married women in Pakistan may face various challenges, including societal expectations regarding their roles, limited access to education and employment opportunities, and sometimes, lack of autonomy within the household. Additionally, issues such as domestic violence, unequal distribution of household responsibilities, and financial constraints can further exacerbate the difficulties faced by married women. However, it's essential to note that experiences can vary widely based on factors such as socio-economic status, education level, and geographical location. Efforts are being made to address these challenges through advocacy, legislation, and community initiatives aimed at promoting gender equality and women's rights.

Did you know ❓it will take 286 years to achieve gender equality at the current pace (UN)? Here's why... According to the UN, at the current rate of progress, it will take a staggering 286 years to achieve gender equality. The #WorldEconomicForum estimates an additional 132 years to close the global gender gap. Alarmingly🚨, #Iraq is considering a bill that would lower the minimum marriage age for girls from 18 to 9, a move that would undoubtedly exacerbate this disparity. The UN's assessment that it could take 300 years❗ to eliminate #childmarriage is a sobering reality. Outdated religious beliefs continue to be a significant barrier to gender equality and the well-being of young girls worldwide🌐, in issues like inheritance laws and abortion rights. The Taliban's suppression of women's education is one of the many deeply troubling examples of using religion as a pretext to control women's lives. What are your thoughts? on why #Iceland and other Nordic countries remain most gender equal countries.

I have completed the course at UN Women training center "Gender Concepts to get Started; International Frameworks for Gender Equality; and Promoting Gender Equality throughout the UN System". This course aims to develop and/or strengthen awareness and understanding of gender equality and women’s empowerment as a first step towards behavioral change and the integration of a gender perspective into everyday work for all UN staff at headquarters, regional and country levels. It provides an introduction to the concepts, international framework, and methods for working toward gender equality and women’s empowerment. It also offers users the opportunity to make links between gender and specific thematic areas such as work; education; political participation; emergencies; peace and security; sexual and reproductive health; sexual and gender diversity and human rights; and violence against women. https://lnkd.in/dHQdbp4N
