Abstract
This booklet has been designed to assist Christian groups to learn more and reflect on the current situation of women’s rights. It provides a theological reflection, with reference to some of the scripture, for the purpose of enlightening people on the Church Social Teaching in relation to women’s rights. This booklet invites individuals to share their own personal experiences and consider effective ways to advocate for the improvement of women’s rights, in our own local communities, in our country and also internationally.
