Paragraphe
Paragraph text
The delegation of political or public power to religious institutions or indigenous communities that are exempt from the requirement to include women in their leadership and decision-making bodies cancels women's right to participate in significant aspects of public and political life; in such cases, the boundaries of women's rights are defined unilaterally by decision-makers of patriarchal social orders.
