PRIORITY DIRECTIONS PROVIDING EQUAL RIGHTS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR WOMEN IN POLITICAL ADMINISTRATION AND THE ANALYSIS OF EXISTING PROBLEMS

Abstract

Although women make up a significant part of the world's population, they are often excluded from political life and do not actively participate in the decision-making process that directly affects their lives. Expanding women's political leadership plays crucial role for realizing their rights. In this article, the tasks were set to analyze the factors that prevent women from participating in the process of making important political decisions, the obstacles to their holding top leadership positions. Gender gaps are widespread, mainly in the areas of economic opportunity, business and politics. Thus, the achievement of gender equality is a central indicator of the development of each country. The large-scale participation of women in politics is one of the effective ways not only in solving political, but also social and moral problems, protecting human rights, families, the elderly, motherhood and childhood. The article also provides conclusions and recommendations for increasing the level of women's participation in the political processes of countries.
