Abstract

Female education is a controversial topic. Even though government authorities take actions to prevent gender-related issues in education, gender issues arise because of patriarchal communities’ beliefs of women’s roles in society. Women in Azerbaijan usually have no choice in choosing their life path due to society’s traditional sexism. This usually shows itself in the education field, where we can observe the humiliation of female education rights because it is the first and one of the foremost phases for women to overcome the fake barriers created by society’s unfair beliefs. The research study was designed and coordinated by United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Azerbaijan, State Committee of the Republic of Azerbaijan for Family, Women and Children’s Affairs International organization “Promundo,” International Center for Social Research (ICSR) in collaboration with the International Center for Research on Women (ICRW) and the Azerbaijan State Committee. The data used in this research was examined in terms of female education rights violations. The authors pointed out three main aspects that create the pretext for education rights violation: traditional sexism, religious issues, and gender-related imbalance in career choices. The outcome of the research shed light on the violation of females’ education rights in patriarchal communities by depicting the situation in Azerbaijan society.

阿塞拜疆的假锁链阻碍女性接受教育

摘要

女性教育是一个有争议的话题。尽管政府当局采取行动防止教育中与性别相关的问题，但性别问题的出现是由于父权社区对妇女在社会中的角色的信念。由于社会传统的性别歧视，阿塞拜疆妇女通常无法选择自己的人生道路。这通常表现在教育领域，我们可以看到女性教育权利受到的侮辱，因为这是女性克服社会不公平信念所造成的虚假障碍的第一个也是最重要的阶段之一。该研究由联合国人口基金（人口基金）阿塞拜疆、阿塞拜疆共和国家庭、妇女和儿童事务国家委员会、国际组织“Promundo”、国际社会研究中心（ICSR）与国际组织合作设计和协调。妇女研究中心（ICRW）和阿塞拜疆国家委员会。本研究中使用的数据是根据女性教育权利侵犯情况进行审查的。作者指出了为侵犯教育权提供借口的三个主要方面：传统性别歧视、宗教问题以及与性别相关的职业选择失衡。研究结果通过描述阿塞拜疆社会的状况，揭示了父权社会中侵犯女性教育权利的情况。
