This research publication aims to facilitate a dialogue between two legal traditions: human rights law and Islamic law. In particular, it draws attention to the realization of women’s rights in Muslim communities, specifically in Indonesia. It addresses the challenges faced by trainers in conducting human rights education activities in communities implementing Shari’a-nuanced perda (short for peraturan daerah, local legislations influenced by Syariah).
