Did you know Spain now has a Gender Parity Law? ✨ Adopted in 2024, it makes parity a rule, not a goal. Candidate lists must alternate women & men, and the Government itself must be at least 40% of each sex. A new era for equal representation. ⚖️ #Spain #GenderEquality

On 24 Oct 1975, around 90 % of Icelandic women walked off the job — and left their unpaid domestic work too. The strike helped lead to Iceland’s first gender-equality law in 1976 and inspired the election of Vigdís Finnbogadóttir, the world’s first democratically elected female president, in 1980.

Parliaments rarely conduct gender audits on their own. Chamber of Deputies 🇱🇺 is one of those champions.

This October marks a quarter-century of UNSCR 1325 — a landmark commitment to ensure that women are not only protected in conflict but are fully included in shaping peace and security. As we mark #WPS25, let us recommit to making #GenderParity the global standard for peace and democracy.

Five years ago, I joined the @osce_odihr – what a fantastic journey it’s been so far. 🥂 Cheers to, dear OH-DEAR! This month also marks the start of my final working year at the OSCE. By the end of July 2026, I’ll reach my 10-year limit and officially ‘time out’. ☀️☀️☀️

The new German Bundestag 🇩🇪 will have only 32.4% of women MPs, a decline from 35.7% in the last convocation. Men’s over-representation is not the same in all fractions ⤵️.
