Abstract
Women have been struggling for their rights for centuries in the male-dominated societies. When females are involved in economic and social aspects of their lives, it helps improve their families, communities and countries’ health, welfare, prosperity and security. Kurdistan, as a part of Iraq, is one of the State Party to CEDAW and is under an obligation to take the measures required by the convention to eliminate discrimination against women and ensure the equal enjoyment of human rights by women. There are different agents and factors that can contribute to the enforcement of human rights, however, state power plays the foundational and major role in establishing and enforcing the legal rights of women. The study will identify the extent to which national legislation correspond to CEDAW conventions. Our instrument of analysis would be Article 11 which is focused on women’s employment. Our findings include that no substantial legal discriminations disadvantaging women exist.
