Women account for over 52 per cent of the total population of Haiti and are very active in the economic and social sectors. Yet their political participation and representation in Parliament is very limited. Only seven of the 144 political parties are headed by women. Women represent less than five per cent of the Haitian parliament, and there are no women at all in the current Senate. Now that the gender quota is included in the amended constitution, what are the best strategies to ensure its effectiveness?

On the occasion of the 2014 International Women’s Day, International IDEA joins the rest of the world in awareness raising and celebrating women with the theme Empowering change and action. For International IDEA this presents an opportunity to salute all women across the world for defending the rights of women in all spheres of life and the implementation of empowering change and actions. Though yet again we celebrate women of the world in the context of unmet Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) - and in particular MDG 3 on gender equality and the empowerment of women.

The past three decades have seen significant gains in securing women’s rights and constitutional guarantees of equality. That so much discrimination against women persists after decades of national and international commitments to eliminate all forms of discrimination against women is an unfortunate reality. The rising global consensus on women’s empowerment did not emerge overnight but rather evolves from a long, slow struggle for the recognition of women’s rights. Consequently, concerted actions on empowering women in order to trigger changes in the deeply rooted gender inequalities in all spheres of life are essential.
