Wikipedia translation of the week: 2022-44[edit]
The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help translate this article! Women's rights in Qatar are restricted by the country's male guardianship law and influenced by the Wahhabi interpretation of Islam. Both women and men were enfranchised in the country at the same time, in 1999. Labour force participation rates of Qatari women are above the world average and among the highest in the Arab World, which comes mainly as a result of an increasing number of Qatari women who are attaining academic degrees.
