CEDAW Marks 45 Years of the Women's Rights Convention
Original: CEDAW at 45
The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, the UN treaty often called the international bill of rights for women, is marking its 45th anniversary. Adopted in 1979 and in force since 1981, it has been ratified by nearly every UN member state. Legal commentators are reflecting on its achievements and its limits, noting that enforcement remains weak and that several states maintain broad reservations.
Why now: The anniversary is prompting legal and human rights commentators to assess the convention's four and a half decades of impact
