This report outlines the arguments related to Islam made by 44 OIC countries in their CEDAW reporting documents and constructive dialogues with the Committee, and Musawah’s responses based on our Framework for Action. This outlines the results of the research and Musawah’s responses to these results. It explains the findings from the research in terms of approaches taken to addressing family laws and practices by the CEDAW Committee itself, States parties, and NGOs. It also summarises how the Musawah Framework for Action can be applied to respond to State party justifications for non-compliance and open possibilities for more just and equal Muslim family laws and practices.
