Abstract:
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is inextricably linked to the issues Palestinian women face. They have been affected psychologically, mentally, and physically. The Palestinian independence movement and Palestinian women's struggle are inextricably linked. The protection of women's rights has grown in importance in light of the protracted conflict in Palestine. Conflict-related tensions and economic pressures are contributing to an increase in domestic violence. In conflict areas, fundamental rights like freedom of speech, travel, and political participation are often ignored or restricted. Th

Using the lens of filiality, we are able to observe the finer nuances of their gendered self-conception within the context of the rapidly changing world at the end of China's imperial era. I argue that the language and sentiment of filiality facilitated a substantial broadening of women's rights: in expanding what a literati daughter can claim as her intellectual inheritance, in providing the

This thesis is a comparative case study of the Suffragette movement and the Gulabi Gang, two women’s movements using violence as a political strategy to fight patriarchal structures.

This study therefore aims to challenge the idea of female pacifism and to acknowledge women as rational, and sometimes violent, actors. This will be done by comparing the Suffra

Abstract:
The paper examines the principle of citizenship and its effects on the individual's relationship with his country, where he enjoys a number of rights, especially in the political field, most notably his participation in political life such as joining the party and participating within its bodies and electoral practice. The workshop addressed the problematic of the extent to which the Algerian legislature recognizes the citizenship of women politically and their right to political participation within the party, candidacy and membership in the parliamentary and local councils. The study aimed t

Abstract:
Breast cancer, the most frequent malignancy diagnosed in women, can feature uncommon presentations such as paraneoplastic syndrome, including dermatomyositis (DM). DM is a rare idiopathic inflammatory myopathy that affects adults and children, predominantly women. Many epidemiological studies demonstrated that adults with DM have an increased risk for malignancy. Early evidence came from case reports, but this link was later confirmed in case-control and population-based studies. According to recent data, the association between DM and malignancy ranges from 7 to 30% of cases. Therefore, when

Abstract:
This Helpdesk Report is part mapping of the mediation and peacebuilding actors in Tunisia and part review of the available literature. There are a host of governmental and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that are involved in the mediation of conflicts and peacebuilding, both in formal and informal ways. There is overlap in the principles and goals of peacebuilding and mediation; many organisations conduct both practices, intermingling them. Local, regional, national and international actors have applied mediation and peacebuilding to many different types of conflict in the past decade in

Abstract:
The aim of promoting gender equality and women’s rights as integral parts of development efforts is enshrined in the key strategies and plans of many organizations. This is the case for the individual affiliates that comprise Oxfam International (OI), and the Oxfam confederation as a whole. This report sets out to assist Oxfam to better understand and learn from the Confederation’s work in this area to date. The purpose of the report is to provide an initial mapping of work on transformative leadership for women's rights (TLWR) in order to offer suggestions, impetus and a programmatic framewor

This paper explores the research undertaken by the Nucleus of Interdisciplinary Studies on Women (NEIM), of the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), Brazil, involving faculty and graduate and undergraduate students as part of the Countering Backlash research programme. The study focused on three major issues: the termination and re-installation of the ‘Bolsa Família Program’, a conditional cash transfer to poor families during the pandemic; the rising number of cases of gender-based violence, both in the domestic sphere and the political arena; and the continuous attempts to block access to leg

Abstract:
This rapid evidence review synthesises data on women's participation in higher education (HE) across Middle East North Africa (MENA), Sub-Saharan Africa, and Southeast Asia, examining its impact on socio-economic development in middle- and low-income countries (MICs and LICs). Drawing on UNESCO, World Bank, and OECD sources, it underscores the positive correlation between women's HE participation and socio-economic development while addressing barriers they encounter. Case studies from Egypt, Thailand, and Kenya illustrate these impacts regionally. The review concludes by advocating for enhanc

Abstract:
African governments are spending over 1US$bn per year on digital surveillance technologies which are being used without adequate legal protections in ways that regularly violate citizens’ fundamental human rights. This report documents which companies, from which countries, are supplying which types of surveillance technology to African governments. Without this missing detail, it is impossible to adequately design measures to mitigate and overcome illegal surveillance and violations of human rights. Since the turn of the century, we have witnessed a digitalisation of surveillance that has ena

Abstract:
Are international human rights treaties associated with better rights performance? The appetite for a conclusive answer has driven a number of large scale quantitative studies that have broadly shown little or no effect, and sometimes even a backsliding. However, the headline conclusions belie much more complicated findings, and the research methods used are controversial. These issues undermine confidence in the findings. Comparative and individual case studies allow for more detailed information about how domestic human rights activists use international human rights laws in practice. They t

Abstract:
This project developed conceptual and empirical frameworks to analyze the water management politics as water scarcity increases. The analyses showed that increased scarcity will tend to encourage a transition from systems in which water is allocated administratively to water trading. However, transaction costs and political economy considerations placed barriers on the introduction of markets. The recent droughts - both in Israel and California were shown to cause an increase in water use efficiency by adoption of modern technologies and improvement of water conveyance systems.

This paper reflects the findings of the first phase of the REJUVENATE project, which set out to understand and map approaches to integrating children, youth, and community participation in child rights initiatives. We did this through a scoping of existing practitioner and academic literature (developing a project-based literature review matrix), a mapping of key actors, and the development of a typology of existing approaches. All three of these elements were brought together into a ‘living archive’, which is an evolving database that currently comprises 100 matrices, and a ‘collection’ of ke

Abstract:
This working paper first introduces tradable permits as part of an overall taxonomy of economic instruments in the field of water management. In this context, three fundamentally different fields of application of tradable permits systems relating to water are presented: tradable water abstraction rights, tradable rights to water-based resources and tradable water pollution rights. Next, the authors provide literature-based empirical evidence of the international experience with tradable water pollution rights (case studies from the US and Australia).
