dc.description.abstract | Sections 20 and 24 of the Republican Constitution of Malawi are to the effect that rural women should not be discriminated against. Key findings dictate the need for the Ministry of Gender, Children and Community Development to push for programs that will tackle the barriers that limit young rural women’s political participation, such as a quota system to ensure an increase in the number of young rural women who participate in politics at the local government level. Article 14 of CEDAW (Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women) can also be implemented to address particular problems faced by rural women. | en |
