On 07 September 2021, representatives from Equality Now and Uthema presented relevant findings on the Maldives from the 6-country regional study entitled “Sexual Violence in South Asia : Legal and Other Barriers to Justice for Survivors”, produced by Equality Now, to the Judges and some Senior Officials at the Family Court of the Maldives.
We are pleased to note that a very meaningful and constructive discussion was had, based on the findings and recommendations of the report. We thank the Family Court for this opportunity and for the Judges and Court Officers’ time, and look forward to future engagements for such productive discussions on issues of common concern.

People's Majlis Equality Now
On 23 August 2021, representatives from Equality Now and Uthema presented relevant findings on the Maldives from the 6-country regional study entitled Sexual Violence in South Asia : Legal and Other Barriers to Justice for Survivors, produced by Equality Now, to members of the Human Rights & Gender Committee at the Peoples’ Majlis.
The Committee noted that the findings of the report are important for the work of the Committee, which is currently reviewing the proposed amendments to the Sexual Offences Act (17/2014), and intends to address multiple gaps in the current law to initiate meaningful changes.

#Women carry double/triple burden.
There's no way a man as mythical "provider" can actually provide for a family in today's world!
This expectation is inconsistent with reality.
Stereotypes leave #women juggling life - here's a child's eye view!

Laamu Gaadhoo is the only big unexploited island on the atoll with the country’s largest turtle nesting beach, a mangrove, lush seagrass and archaeological remains. This island should be preserved as a #naturereserve enabling the island to adapt naturally to sea level rise 🏝 https://twitter.com/appatu152/status/1386600687354613761

the portrayal of development based on concrete, tar and plastic is extractive and outdated. human well being and planetary health are tied to living in harmony with nature.
politicians and their loyal activists should not mislead the public in to thinking otherwise. https://twitter.com/mareealee/status/1449405863790202892

#CEDAWMaldives govt response on vocational edu opportunities for women sounds awfully gendered: makeup, fashion + design, baking + pastries... this speaks to sex-role stereotyping, and the need for women to have equal access to employment, from judiciary to political leadership!
Re: Cmte question on #GBV, govt response was "Victims don't want to be declared as a victim to start the investigation" — but govt cannot simply stop at "generating awareness" of police help to combat social stigma & structural barriers to justice for survivors #CEDAW80
That's it for Part 1 of Constructive Dialogue between #Maldives state party and #CEDAW80. Tune in tomorrow 10AM Geneva for Part 2, Article 11 onward.

In opening statement, Maldives govt cites progress in withdrawing partial reservations to CEDAW Article 16 through enactment of national laws. But withdrawing remaining reservations is needed to end discrimination against women in marriage & family matters. #FreeOurFamilyLaws
Govt says review process underway of the #domesticviolence Act to consider perpetrator accountability and rehabilitation in new centre, as well as criminalisation of offences.
Are women's groups being consulted in this process, esp w/ escalation during #COVID19? #CEDAWMaldives
#CEDAWMaldives Cmte also raised issue of rape, sexual violence, domestic violence laws that contribute to denying protection to survivors and asked about measures for effective implementation. #CEDAW80
Maldives govt responds that family law review will take place before end of next year. #CEDAW80 #CEDAWMaldives
#CEDAW80 Cmte asks about how govt plans to harmonise laws based on Shari'ah with provisions on #genderequality and #humanrights that lead to disparities in lived realities of Maldivian women. #FreeOurFamilyLaws
Important note on #CEDAWMaldives govt's commitment to #endFGM: female circumcision has the public support of religious authorities, but the Qur'an and Sunnah do not support this un-Islamic practice.
