30 Worst Countries for Women’s Rights

2- Yemen

Yemen is the 2nd country on our list of 30 worst countries for women’s rights. In this case, women make around one-third of what males do, and only 2% hold top positions. Only 10% of ministerial posts are held by women, indicating that women are also underrepresented in the state’s institutions. Women are disadvantaged under sharia, the legislative law. The lack of access to healthcare and the high rate of early marriage in Yemeni society worsen the situation.
