Abstract

Studies show higher numbers of women in parliament generally contribute to stronger attention to womens issues. Womens political participation is a fundamental prerequisite for gender equality and genuine democracy. It facilitates womens direct engagement in public decision making and is a means of ensuring better accountability to women. Political accountability to women begins with increasing the number of women in decision making positions, but it cannot stop there. What is required are gender sensitive governance reforms that will make all elected officials more effective at promoting gender equality in public policy and ensuring their implementation.
