Women continue to be underrepresented in governing structures across the OSCE region, and particularly in decision-making positions. ODIHR facilitates and supports institutional change, knowledge sharing and capacity building for advancing women’s representation, roles and influence in political and public life. Good practices for enhancing women’s participation in political parties, elections, local politics and parliaments are presented in ODIHR’s publications.
