Women are discriminated against in many ways but if a woman is also a member of a minority or indigenous community, she faces multiple disadvantages. Despite some efforts, neither gender equality nor minority and indigenous rights are integral to international law or human rights. Ignoring this discrimination leads to a failure in recognising the many ways women are ill-treated. A report from the Minority Rights Group International (MRG) examines how factors such as gender, minority and indigenous status combine to affect women. The MRG encourages those working on minority and indigenous peoples’ rights to include gender issues. It also urges those working on gender equality and women's rights to include minorities and indigenous peoples within their remit.
