The Role and Impact of Graduate Women in Promoting Gender Equality and Women’s Rights in Burundi
Prev Documents 25 of 31 Next
Burundian women have been subjected to the oppression of patriarchy with a corollary of other discriminatory acts such as cultural injustice on the girl child, brutalities, subordination and other oppressive realities and manifestations of the trammels of tradition on women. Different commitments in improving the women’s conditions were recorded especially through the Beijing Platform of Action 1995 and the Convention for the Elimination of All sorts of Discrimination Against Women. Despite all these efforts to promote the advancement of women, Burundian women continue to face enormous challenges to the enjoyment of their human rights.
