Special attention is paid to the analysis of key pre-requisites and obstacles to success of these mechanisms. The authors analyzed the relevant national and international legislation as well as assessed efforts of international and local non-governmental organizations aimed at ensuring equal opportunities for participation of men and women in political life. Among main obstacles hindering women’s empowerment and more active participation in political life the authors reveal the following ones: gender prejudices and cultural factors, lack of rule of law and deficiencies of the political culture, ineffectiveness of gender quota and other governmental measures on gender equality, sexual context of the discourse on ‘political’ women, lack of economic and political resources, etc.The meeting will take place at The Green Bean cafe (2 Tamanyan str, Cascade). The language of the discussion is English.</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/tags/women" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">women</a></div><div class="field-item odd"><a href="/tags/politics" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">politics</a></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-date-and-time field-type-datetime field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Date and time:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="date-display-single" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2015-05-20T16:30:00+04:00">Wednesday, May 20, 2015 - 16:30</span></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-category field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Category:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/category/social" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Social</a></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-application-deadline field-type-datetime field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Application deadline:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="date-display-single" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2015-05-18T13:30:00+04:00">Monday, May 18, 2015 - 13:30</span></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-image field-type-image field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Image:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img typeof="foaf:Image" src="http://trainingsbox.com/sites/default/files/11263104_917376411653516_393810783814801642_n.jpg" width="480" height="358" alt="" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-trainer field-type-entityreference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Trainer:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Anna Melikyan</div><div class="field-item odd">Irina Ghaplanyan </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-hashtags field-type-computed field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Hashtags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">#women #politics </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-comp-date field-type-computed field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Comp date:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">1432125000</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-comp-view-title field-type-computed field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Comp view title:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Archive</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-comp-view-path field-type-computed field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Comp view path:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">archive</div></div></div> Mon, 18 May 2015 09:38:59 +0000 kushane 395 at http://trainingsbox.com http://trainingsbox.com/trainings/strengthening-women%E2%80%99s-political-participation-armenia#comments Armenia: A Country in Search of Leaders.

In doing so, this class constructed and articulated the national narrative guided foremost by the notions of power appropriation and consolidation, leading not only to a disconnect between the political narrative and the subsequent policies, but also and most importantly to a failure of the national project.</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/tags/politics" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">politics</a></div><div class="field-item odd"><a href="/tags/leadership" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Leadership</a></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-date-and-time field-type-datetime field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Date and time:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="date-display-single">Monday, May 11, 2015 -
