Ateneo Human Rights Center
This Benchbook seeks to contribute to the elucidation of how jurisprudence has helped in the realization of women’s human rights and how it can further so do, using our State obligations under the CEDAW as the standard. This book has been divided and classified according to rights and principles in the CEDAW which promote gender equality and non-discrimination against women. The categories of rights have been patterned after Fact Sheet No. 22 on CEDAW published by the UN Centre for Human Rights. The summary of domestic and some foreign jurisprudence are found under such principles and rights as illustrative cases. This was designed so that the cases can be viewed as examples of how courts have upheld and can uphold the rights of women using the human rights framework of CEDAW through the development of case law. Almost all of the cases have been decided from 1981 and onwards, this year having been the time when Philippines ratified the Convention.
