By Youth Hub,

The pivotal role of women in government cannot be overemphasized, as it plays a crucial part in shaping a more inclusive and diverse society. The presence of women in parliament is a significant stride toward achieving gender equality and fostering a more just and inclusive community.

Women in parliament often champion social issues such as education, healthcare, and poverty reduction, addressing the concerns that impact the lives of all citizens. Their unique perspectives bring a balanced approach to socio-economic matters, ultimately benefiting every member of society.

According to recent data from the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), Rwanda leads the way globally with 61.3% women’s representation in parliament, closely followed by South Africa at 46.3%, ranking 11th globally. Explore the table below for a comprehensive look at how other African countries fare in women’s representation in parliament.

Somalia Female Parliamentarian Visit Nigeria…

In the pursuit of becoming a resilient democracy, Somalia is committed to establishing democratic institutions that encourage equitable and meaningful participation of women in legislative processes. Acknowledging the importance of sharing insights and experiences, the Somali female parliamentarian last week embarked on a parliamentary study tour to Nigeria.

The study visit was aimed at enriching their parliamentary duties and responsibilities. Nigeria was chosen as the destination for its similarities in governance structures, cultural values, and religious systems.

Facilitated by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Somalia, responding to a request from the Women in Parliament of Somalia (WPS) leadership forum, the study tour was a transformative one-week-long experience. The Somali Parliamentarian was warmly received by key figures, including the Nigerian Senate President, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Director-General of the National Institute for Legislative and Democratic Studies (NILDS), UN Agencies, CSOs, and Civil Society in Nigeria.

This impactful initiative exemplifies a collective commitment to empower women in parliament and foster a more enlightened, representative, and progressive society.
