Book Synopsis Patterns on discriminations against woman by : Alessia Carnevale
Download or read book Patterns on discriminations against woman written by Alessia Carnevale and published by Passerino Editore. This book was released on 2022-04-09 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recognition of women’s human rights has been taking place on the global stage in the last two decades implying a parallel rethinking of human rights conceptions. Since 1980 and 1990, feminists has increasingly criticized mainstreaming interpretation of human rights as stemming from male bias, ensuring that women’s human rights require a comprehensive understanding of societal structures and power relations influencing women ability to enjoy, freely and without any kind of discrimination, their rights. Since power structures affect and involve all aspect of human life, from law to politics, from private to public and community life, specific attention to women’s experiences of discrimination and oppression is required. The adoption of the Convention Against all Forms of Discrimination against Women, certainly represents a fundamental depart from gender-neutral language in international human rights discourses, towards the recognition of specific nature of discrimination against women, acknowledging previous advancements of women’s rights and promoting a progressive affirmation of women’s rights as women’s human rights. This long and detailed negotiation process taking place within United Nations structures and led by women’s rights group and NGOs, culminated in the adoption of Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action of the World Conference on Human Rights held in 1993, affirming that human rights of women are inalienable, integral and indivisible part of universal human rights. The articulation of women’ s rights as human rights implied the principle of universality had overcome claims to cultural relativist discourses while at the same time recognizing women and generally individuals free choice to embed themselves in cultural activities and practices that reflect their sense of identity, individually and or collectively, and to freely express symbols of cultural belonging. Secondly, the articulation of women’s rights as human rights overcome the public/ private divide through affirmation of due diligence standards, allowing to determine whether concerned State has taken effective steps to comply with its human rights obligations. In practice, States are required to address social and cultural patterns perpetuating subjection of women in society and stereotyped role. The Plan of Action of International Women Conference in Beijing in 1995 reflects this approach while affirming the significance of national and religious particularities in various historical, cultural and religious systems must be kept in mind, nonetheless is the duty of States, regardless of their political, economic and cultural system to protect and promote all human rights and fundamental freedoms. Despite these values and principles, shared by international community, have been officially enshrined in international human rights law and policy framework, at the same time the difficulties these rules encounter to be accepted as binding and be implemented and enforced into domestic legal and policy framework, emanate from the resistance of many States to assume human rights paradigm as comprehensive of national and regional instances. Alessia Carnevale has graduated in Human Rights and Multi-Level Governance from University of Padua and in Political Sciences and International Relations from University of Naples "L'Orientale". She has been awarded by Fondazione Alessandro Pavesi with the scholarship "Alessandro Pavesi on human rights" in 2019. Passionate about African studies and traveling, she decided to work on the role of African women to foster food security under a human rights approach, specifically in Senegal, inspired by her experience in this country. Indeed she completed in 2014 a stage as project leader involved with the Senegalese team of AIESEC, a youth run global NGO.

Book Synopsis Gender-Responsive Budgeting in Practice by : Bola Akanji
Download or read book Gender-Responsive Budgeting in Practice written by Bola Akanji and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-03-30 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twenty-first century, gender-responsive budgeting (GRB) has emerged as a development tool that explores if and how gender equality goals and targets are being effectively supported through government funding. Gender-Responsive Budgeting in Practice: Lessons from Nigeria and Selected Developing Countries argues that, although justified by the high costs of gender inequality to economic growth and development, the use of GRB as a tool to achieve global and regional gender equality goals has seen little progress in the twenty-first century, especially in developing countries. Through analyses of government budgets and the budgeting process, and gender equality outcomes in Nigeria and the selected countries from 2000 to 2020, the contributors show that GRB has failed to gain traction or thrive in developing countries. Using these analyses, the contributors identify critical success factors that are missing in policy-making and planning in the developing world and must be integrated in order to further facilitate inclusive growth and sustainable development.

Download or read book Women and men in the news written by Mannila, Saga and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The media carry significant notions of social and cultural norms and values and have a powerful role in constructing and reinforcing gendered images. The news in particular has an important role in how notions of power are distributed in the society. This report presents study findings on how women and men are represented in the news in the Nordic countries, and to what extent women and men occupy the decision-making positions in the media. The survey is based on the recent findings from three cross-national research projects. These findings are supported by national studies. The results indicate that in all the Nordic countries women are underrepresented in the news media both as news subjects and as sources of information. Men also dominate in higher-level decision-making positions. The report includes examples of measures used to improve the gender balance in Nordic news.

Book Synopsis Women and Trade by : World Bank;World Trade Organization
Download or read book Women and Trade written by World Bank;World Trade Organization and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2020-09-04 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade can dramatically improve women’s lives, creating new jobs, enhancing consumer choices, and increasing women’s bargaining power in society. It can also lead to job losses and a concentration of work in low-skilled employment. Given the complexity and specificity of the relationship between trade and gender, it is essential to assess the potential impact of trade policy on both women and men and to develop appropriate, evidence-based policies to ensure that trade helps to enhance opportunities for all. Research on gender equality and trade has been constrained by limited data and a lack of understanding of the connections among the economic roles that women play as workers, consumers, and decision makers. Building on new analyses and new sex-disaggregated data, Women and Trade: The Role of Trade in Promoting Gender Equality aims to advance the understanding of the relationship between trade and gender equality and to identify a series of opportunities through which trade can improve the lives of women.
