Women’s Rights in Islam and Somali Culture
Author: Academy for Peace and Development
Abstract
The cultural context and experiences of women in Somaliland provide insight into both specific and universal challenges to the fulfillment of the human rights of all Somali women. For instance, the collapse of the central government eliminated the legal protection of the human rights of women. In the same way, the prolonged war adversely affected their socioeconomic situation.
