الإلكتروني حول تمويل النساء الناشطات في السياسة

Dear International Knowledge Network of Women in Politics Members:

What strategies are there to ensure that more women are elected to mayoral positions (president of the local council)? What are strategies for female mayors to be effective leaders?

Does having more women in local governments lead to creating more gender sensitive programs and legislation and empowering other women in communities?

What are some strategies used by women to build a base of support and to become known in their local communities?

What are some of the laws, quota regulations, practices and initiatives that ensure women’s equal participation at local levels of government?
