Women and Politics

Women and politics refers to the participation, representation, and influence of women within political systems. It involves advocating for women's rights, equality, and issues that affect women globally and locally. Historically underrepresented, women are increasingly engaging in elections, leadership roles, and policymaking, contributing diverse perspectives. Achieving gender parity in politics aims to create more inclusive governance that reflects the needs of all citizens. Recognizing barriers like discrimination and social norms, efforts focus on empowerment, education, and policy reforms to ensure women can fully participate and influence political decisions.
