Summary
In this contribution we show the research carried out in the area of international legislation about asylum and gender-related persecution as a possible cause for protection. The applied methodology includes in-depth interviews with Spanish and French experts in the matter, as well as with a score of women asylum applicants in both countries. In the same way, we include the documentary analysis made in the field of the current regulations. Furthermore, we enclose a comparative study of the processes of asylum application and the statistics of concession. In our research work we expect to find out if any progress in considering genderrelated persecution as a decisive cause for concession has been achieved. On the other hand, we also try to discover which are the challenges for international jurisprudence to make effective the respect towards fundamental rights.
