Abstract: Women’s presence in politics is not just about numbers; it is about ensuring that governance reflects the voices and needs of all members of society. This study delves into the cultural, institutional, economic, and societal barriers that continue to limit women’s access to political leadership. It explores how women’s participation transforms policymaking, particularly in addressing issues like education, healthcare, and social welfare, which are central to human well-being. By examining global experiences and successful strategies, this research highlights the urgency of creating inclusive political systems that empower women to shape a more just and equitable future for all.
