The strategy also defines a set of specific interventions for its best application.
The strategy is based on a field study carried out by the National Center for Social & Criminological Research in 2016 in cooperation with the National Council for Women and targeting 3000 females aged 18 and over. The study also included 15 one to one interviews with actors in the women empowering field, 12 focus group discussion with males and females involved in the legal empowerment of women, and 15 case studies with women who have legal problems related to economic issues.
