Impacts of Enforced Disappearance and ArbitraryDetention on Women and Chidren in Yemen

Category: Publication

The policy paper entitled “Impacts of Enforced Disappearance and Arbitrary Detention on Women and Children in Yemen” was launched by the Abductees’ Mothers Association as part of a broader project led by the Peace Track Initiative (PTI), in partnership with Elbarlamaent and the TOBE Foundation for Rights and Liberties, with funding from the European Union (EU), and on the occasion of International Women’s Day. The paper represents a qualitative and necessary contribution to the protection of women human rights defenders from the violations they continue to face as a result of the ongoing conflict in Yemen.

The paper highlights the gendered impacts of enforced disappearance and arbitrary detention, particularly the suffering endured by women and children whose husbands and fathers are subjected to such practices. It aims to inform practical, locally grounded solutions that reduce harm, uphold rights, and advance accountability.
