Abstract

This study dealt with the CEDAW Convention, which means the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women, where the following problem arises, which is the extent of harmony between Jordanian legislation and the provisions of CEDAW. One of the results of this study is that CEDAW is an international agreement whose stated goal is to eliminate all forms of discrimination Against women and their equality with men in all fields, and give them civil, political, social, cultural and economic rights equal to men. Jordan also had reservations about three articles of CEDAW that were mentioned in this study, and then withdrew one of these reservations, which is Article 15 of the Convention The researcher believes that Jordan should withdraw the reservation related to not granting nationality to children of Jordanian women married to non-Jordanian men, because this is part of human justice and not only because of CEDAW.
