A Call for Gender-Inclusive Data Protection Laws

While current data protection laws provide a basic framework for the privacy rights of individuals, they inadequately secure the privacy rights of women by not considering gender-specific vulnerabilities. Laws need to be more inclusive and take into account the differences in how data privacy issues impact individuals based on their gender. Incorporating gender analysis in the drafting and application of these laws is essential to ensure they offer adequate protection for everyone, including women.
