Women’s Party Sections
Women’s party sections are formal, internal bodies that incorporate women into the party structure. They provide an institutional basis for women to advocate internally and, to an extent, externally, for greater participation of women in public life. By doing so, they ensure that the party focuses and responds to women’s interests, and, depending on the party’s structure, the women’s party section can serve as a vehicle for women to engage in party decision-making processes. You will learn more about it in this section.
