Farsi Guide to Equality in the Family in the Maghreb (Women's Learning Partnership)
In November, WLP published the Persian edition of the Guide to Equality in the Family in the Maghreb for use by Iranian women's rights activists in the "One Million Signatures" campaign for equal legal rights and family law reform. The campaign, launched in August 2006, aims to collect one million signatures and spread grassroots awareness of discriminatory laws such as those related to marriage, divorce, and child custody.
The arguments for family law reform presented in the Guide will help provide support to the legal reform efforts of the "One Million Signatures" campaign. The Guide is a unique advocacy tool developed by Collectif 95 Maghreb-Egalité, a coalition of women's organizations from Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia, that presents the current state of the family law in the Maghreb, and proposes religious, human rights, sociological, and legal arguments for reform, well-supported by relevant data.
