According to recent statistics from 2023, the rate of women's participation in the labor force in Arab countries reached 19.8%, while the employment rate for men reached 74%.

This raises an important question in this context: the reasons for the stark disparity between the two groups, which undoubtedly harms economic prosperity. To address this problem, one of the simplest steps is to implement equal employment opportunities between the two sexes.

As a result of the above, calls have recently been made for equal employment opportunities between the two groups. Some cite the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 1979, which aims to eliminate all forms of discrimination against women and stipulates the importance of eliminating gender discrimination in the economic sphere.
