The Role Of The Quota System In Preparing Women Leader

Abstract

The quota system is crucial to women's political empowerment since it guarantees them specified percentages of representation in elected councils, political party structures, and various political decision-making centers. Many countries have used it, particularly since the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) adopted in 1979. However, this system has had many flaws, particularly in its ability to produce feminist leaders who can lead political action like men in all stations and bodies, and this is due to the application of its dysfunctional and varied patterns, whether during nomination or in determining the results, and despite the opportunities it provides. This system is intended to help women improve their skills and experiences on the ground while also providing them with an opportunity to demonstrate their capacity to lead and serve as a role model.
