Enabling women's participation in the workforce in India, Afghanistan, Sweden, Turkey, Brazil, the US and around the world

Thought I would share the ABA-UNDP International Legal Resource Center's contribution to the UN Women E-Discussion on Enabling Environment and Legal Incentives for Women's Employment from earlier this year.  The report contains essays by lawyers on issues women face accessing employment and working in a variety of countries, including Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Sweden, Brazil, the US and the United Kingdom.  Very interesting reading!  And shows how much more work is to be done.
