Roundtable
Dr Ahmed Salim Bouhbin discusses measures being taken to strengthen the legal and institutional tools that can protect citizens’ rights.
Mauritania became the last country in the world to outlaw the practice of slavery when an official decree of 1981 declared it non-existent. Nevertheless, the legacy of slavery has shaped Mauritania’s modern-day social structures and continues to limit citizens’ access to economic opportunity, education, and finance, as well as prospects for employment and promotion within the formal sector.
