##plugins.themes.academic_pro.article.main##
Abstract
The excerpt explores the obstacles hindering women's engagement in politics and advocates for measures to facilitate equal participation. It highlights the significance of increased women's representation in strengthening democracy and formulating policies that cater to the diverse needs of society. Qualitative research methods are utilized to analyze the challenges faced by women in political participation. Through in-depth thematic analysis, the paper examines the barriers to women's involvement in politics and identifies potential solutions. Despite global progress, women continue to face hurdles such as limited party support, societal norms, and a lack of women's role models in politics. The paper concludes by emphasizing the importance of implementing quotas, fostering gender-sensitive party policies, and promoting women's political leaders to address these challenges and achieve equal participation. To achieve parity in political participation, a multi-pronged approach is recommended. Political parties are urged to develop and implement gender equality policies, including quotas, mentoring programs, and leadership training for women. Additionally, collaborative efforts from governments, media, and civil society are essential to create a pipeline of qualified women's candidates and dismantle cultural and institutional barriers.
