UN panel criticize eight countries for maintaining sexist laws

UNITED NATIONS, Jan. 27 (Xinhuanet) -- A UN panel in charge of promoting women's rights said on Thursday that Italy, Algeria and six other countries still maintain sexist laws and have lots of stereotypes of the inferior woman.

The countries which submitted reports to the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) for scrutiny were Algeria, Croatia, Gabon, Italy, Laos, Paraguay, Samoa and Turkey.

The committee gave the countries detailed recommendations on how to revise specific laws, increase the number of women in public office, provide scholarship to women for training in non-traditional fields and train law enforcement and health care workers on supporting female victims of violence.

"There was no state in which the committee could say women's dejure equality has been achieved," CEDAW chair Rosario Manolo told a press briefing in New York.

"Discriminatory laws remain on the books everywhere and there is a lack of legislation adequately to protect women from violations of their human rights or the impact of a neutral law that is discriminatory of women," she said.

In all eight countries, negative female stereotypes were found throughout society, "whether it is traditional practices, or patriarchal structures, or attitudes about women's and men's proper roles in the family and in society," she said.


All the governments had significant additional work ahead to abolish prejudicial laws, customs and practices and to mount information campaigns about women's rights, especially in employment and education. Women were often unaware of their rightsand of existing mechanisms for getting redress, Manolo said.
