The United States marks National Women’s Equality Day on Thursday. Saturday is Women’s Day in the United Arab Emirates. Regardless of the day, it’s always a good time to remind ourselves that women’s equality and the empowerment of women are very much unfinished goals, particularly in the Middle East. And recent developments in this region don’t bode well for the future.
