Yemen > Social Attitudes Toward Women Topic Brief

One of the main challenges identified by SWMENA targeted NGOs was the stereotypical view of women’s image in Yemen in terms of their role in family and society. To get a sense of these attitudes, we asked questions such as support for women in politics, support for daughters in politics, allowing women to work outside the home and pursue education, support/opposition for women involved in decision-making positions, and others. These questions give a sense of existing attitudes between groups in society such as between genders and between women of urban/rural areas, education levels, and age groups.
