Hello

"Oman: Political Development in a Changing World",  by Carol J. Riphenburg,
published by Praeger in 1998, contains a chapter entitled, "Changing Gender
Relations and Development".

Two women have been elected to the Majlis ash'Shura, I believe that there is
one lady ambassador, and Reem bint Omar Zawawi has been appointed chairman
of Oman International Bank recently.

I regret that I am not aware of any ongoing studies of women in Oman
generally.  I know that there is one market in Oman at which women only are
allowed to participate.

Regards

Sue Hutton

  I am looking for someone who might be knowledgeable about the currently
practiced customs of women in Oman, and their role in society, for a book I
am working on.

  Please respond if you know of someone who has expertise in this area.

  Thanks very much,

  Tracy Barnett
