The Mudawwana is a legal code that governs family law in Morocco. It was first enacted in 1957 and has undergone several reforms, most notably in 2004, to enhance women's rights and promote gender equality. The code addresses issues such as marriage, divorce, child custody, and inheritance, aiming to provide a more equitable framework for family relations. The reforms to the Mudawwana were significant in transforming traditional practices, allowing women greater autonomy and legal protection. These changes reflect Morocco's commitment to modernizing its legal system while balancing cultural values. The code is an essential part of the country's efforts to align with international human rights standards.
