The Ministry of Human Rights, with the support of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, organized in the port city of Aden today a workshop on activating mechanisms to protect women from gender-based violence, in the framework of the ministry's annual celebration of the International Women's Day, 8 March.

The Director General of Complaints and Communications at the Ministry of Human Rights, Imad Sinan, pointed out that the Ministry made determined efforts to eliminate discrimination against women in order to achieve equality in accordance with national laws and international standards .
