Take Back the Nationality - Regionwide Federation Demands Basic Right for Women

Dig it: "Claiming Equal Citizenship: the campaign for Arab women's right to nationality." This is cool.

Women’s right to equal citizenship is guaranteed by the majority of Arab constitutions, as well as by international law. Yet across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and the Gulf, women are denied their right to nationality – a crucial component of citizenship.

In almost every country in the MENA and Gulf regions, women who marry men of other nationalities cannot confer their original nationality to their husbands or children. Only fathers, not mothers, can confer their nationality to their children.

Sad but true. But these gals (and guys) intend to change the status quo:

The Women's Learning Partnership joins with regional partners in Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Morocco to launch the Citizenship Campaign that calls for: Legal reform enabling women to confer their nationality to their husbands and children without condition; Full implementation of reformed nationality laws and equal access to these laws for all women; Recognition of women as equal citizens in all areas of life.

Stop by their site, and sign the solidarity petition.
