TAILIEUCHUNG - Womenís Health Surveillance Report: A Multi-dimensional Look at the Health of Canadian Women

As citizens, Afghan women face constitutional equality but legal inequality. Furthermore, there are great discrepancies between customary law, civil law and Islamic Law - as well as the informal justice system, which tends to grant women even less rights. Years of conflict and violence have further eroded the protection of women's (limited) rights, and a culture of impunity reigns as far as violence is concerned, including violence against women inside and outside the household. The present deteriorating security situation in many parts of the country constitutes the most serious obstacle to promoting rule of law, respect for human rights and introduction of legal reform, which would benefit. | Health Santé Canada Canada CPHÌSPC Canadian Population I Initiative sur la santé de la Health Initiative I population canadienne Part of the Canadian Institute for Health Information Partie intégrale de l Institut canadien d information sur la santé Women s Health Surveillance Report A Multi-dimensional Look at the Health of Canadian Women The views expressed in this report do not necessarily represent the views of the Canadian Population Health Initiative the Canadian Institute for Health Information or Health Canada.
