There is also a growing role and increased participation from the private sector in the provision of health care services. Saudi Arabia has been ranked among the 26 best countries in providing high quality healthcare[1].” Second section: The below paragraph was taken from Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_rights_in_Saudi_Arabia#Separation_of_the_sexes Women in SA First section: The World Economic Forum’s 2016 Global Gender Gap Report ranked Saudi Arabia 141 out of 144 countries for gender parity,[4] down from 134 out of 145 in 2015.[5] According to Saudi law, all adult females must have a male relative as their guardian (wali). A woman is required to have permission from her male guardian in order to travel, study, or work. [57] However, on 1st August 2019, Saudi Arabia allowed women to travel abroad, register a divorce or a marriage, and apply for official documents without male guardian permission. The laws also grant the women the eligibility for the guardianship of minor children.[23][24] In addition, a royal decree passed in May 2017 allowed them to avail government services such as education and healthcare without the need of a consent of a male guardian. [250][251] Literacy level among Saudi women is estimated to be 81% lower than their male counterparts. [139] Only 13% of the country’s workforce constitute Saudi native women. [8] Polygamy is permitted for men who also have unilateral right to divorce their wives without the need of any legal justification.[204] The below paragraph was taken from Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Arabia#cite_note-Otto165-524 A woman can only obtain a divorce with the consent of her husband or judicially if her husband has harmed her. In practice, it is very difficult for a Saudi woman to obtain a judicial divorce [525]. With regard to the law of inheritance, the Quran specifies that fixed portions of the deceased’s estate must be left to the Qur’anic heirs[520] and generally, female heirs receive half the portion of male heirs.[520]
