Peran United Nations Women (Un Women) Dalam Membantu Mengurangi Perbudakan Kontemporer Pada Perempuan Di Mauritania
Contemporary slavery is still occuring in Mauritania despite of
international pressure and the state's obligation to comply with international law
for abolishing the practice of slavery. Misperceptions of religion, poverty, lack of
education, and low positive responses of the government make the problem more
difficult to solve. Ethnic and gender discrimination place Haratine women as
vulnerable victims and find it difficult to emancipate themselves from slavery
without outside help. This research aims to understand the role and effectiveness
of an international organization in overcoming the phenomenon of the
humanitarian crisis that has occurred to women due to contemporary slavery in
Mauritania.
This research was written using the theory of international organizations
where the actor involved in this research problem is UN Women. This study also
used explanatory qualitative methodology with secondary sources and data based
on books, journals, and online literature such as reports, newspapers, and official
articles from UN Women and other UN entities, the government of Mauritania,
Mauritania non-governmental organizations and other independent international
organizations.
The results showed that UN Women contributed to increasing women's
participation in economic and educational aspects and reducing contemporary
slavery to women through the UN Women project in Mauritania. The implemented
program consists of reforming the law on the criminalization of slavery, raising
awareness by involving various local and international parties, expanding access
to economics and education, and providing legal aid. In addition to UN Women's
efforts, the government's commitment in deciding and implementing policies is
also needed to end slavery and violence against women as it’s consequences.
