Tunisia is erasing the women’s rights it once championed
Once hailed for its progressive gender policies, Tunisia is now slipping back into the shadows, quietly erasing the very women’s rights it once championed. The situation for women in Tunisia will remain unchanged if world leaders continue to sit and ponder at the fact that it could be worse, using the gender apartheid in Afghanistan to support their claims. But in Tunisia, despite being influenced by the Sunni Maliki Islamic tradition, Sharia law still anchors the country’s debates on women’s rights.
