OSCE Office co-hosts meeting
on women's participation in elections in Armenia
July 11 2006 - The role of women in the electoral
process and their participation in politics is the focus of a meeting
that opened today in the Armenian capital.
Participants at the event, co-hosted by the OSCE Office in Yerevan
and the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs
(NDI), are discussing the progress made and obstacles still facing
women in Armenia in this respect.
"Women in Armenia still have limited participation in politics
and decision-making," said Blanka Hancilova, Democratization
Officer at the OSCE Office. "We need to encourage women to
play a more active role in elections, and make sure they have a
stronger voice in Armenian politics. This forum is a step in that
direction."
The Women's Leadership Forum of Armenia, which unites representatives
from the public and private sectors, as well as political parties
and non-governmental organizations, was established in March this
year by the NDI.
