This article discusses legislative measures in Kazakhstan that encourage women’s
political participation as a crucial base for a successful democracy, highlights advancements
and identifies challenges.
Through thorough analysis, we have examined the legal and regulatory framework that governs
women’s political participation within our country’s political landscape. This framework is
designed to ensure equal rights and opportunities for both men and women, with the ultimate
goal of eradicating gender-based discrimination. Comprehensive measures have been put in
place to eliminate gender inequality within the political sphere, and equal opportunities and
treatment are provided to girls and women. Our analysis takes into account both national and
international laws.
As we crafted the article, we conducted a thorough analysis of content and monitored internet
resources. In doing so, we carefully considered the perspectives of experts on the subject of
quotas for women, youth, and individuals with disabilities. These experts were divided into
two groups, with some viewing quotas as discriminatory and others seeing them as a means to
promote political rights for women.
We have analyzed statistical data on the representation of women in various fields, such as
science, secondary and vocational education, the judicial system, small and medium businesses,
and decision-making bodies like the government, Majilis, Maslikhats, Akimats, Senate, and
corporations.
