An Overview of Rwanda’s Women Reservation and Participation in Decision-Making
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Rwandan women have given new status as a world leader in gender equality, having achieved a 56% majority in parliament chamber of deputies according to the 2011 report GMO. Women have reached this level of political empowerment because of reasons like Government promoting gender equality in the public and the constitution (2003) that insisted women should constitute 30% in leadership positions in the country. Women’s role in the political leadership in Rwanda is encouraging because it promotes social inclusion in any part of development without any discrimination.
