Women¿s inequality remains a significant global concern with important connotations for the MENA region. Preserving human rights, combating discrimination against women, and enhancing equality of life for women are critical as we work on socio-economic models that are more sustainable and balanced. Women¿s rights recognition in all societies has surfaced since much existing research provides significant evidence of women¿s valuable contribution to the development of our societies and their associated economic contributions. Gender equality is a cornerstone of human rights, and it is critical in developing a sustainable world where individuals can thrive by supporting stable economic and political systems. Core research findings reveal that Arab countries experienced a declining trend in subjective well-being due to the Arab Spring in 2011. This paper presents a critical analysis of existing research studies that demonstrate the link between life satisfaction and the major grievances that came to light during the revolution, with corruption being the primary factor affecting life satisfaction, particularly in countries that experienced significant revolts and uprisings.
