This Social Science Research Network paper outlines many of the specifics of the Ugandan Domestic Relations Bill (DRB). The Bill addresses women's property rights in marriage and women's right to negotiate sex on the grounds of health, sets the minimum age of marriage at eighteen, prohibits FGM and criminalises widow inheritance. The authors uses a thorough explication of the particulars of the bill to exhort the Ugandan government to take responsibility for the discrimination and violence that many of its female citizens routinely suffer.
