  • Abstract:
  • The intersection of women's rights and human rights reveals a persistent dichotomy that underscores the challenges women face in attaining true equality and dignity globally. Despite notable advancements in women's participation in the workforce and public life, the transition from numerical representation to genuine empowerment remains sluggish. This paper examines the systemic and cultural barriers that hinder women's progress into leadership roles across various sectors, particularly in politics and business. Key issues such as gender-based discrimination, unequal pay, and work-life balance challenges contribute to a slow trajectory toward gender parity. Additionally, the scarcity of mentors and role models perpetuates a cycle of underrepresentation, limiting opportunities for aspiring women leaders. This analysis highlights the need for targeted interventions to dismantle these barriers and promote a more equitable landscape for women, ensuring that human rights are not just an abstract ideal but a lived reality for all women.
