Impact
The IPU facilitates parliamentary diplomacy and empowers parliaments and parliamentarians to promote peace, democracy and sustainable development around the world.
The IPU’s ‘Achieving gender equality, action by action’ campaign aims to mobilize the global parliamentary community to accelerate progress in achieving gender equality in politics and society. With progress on women’s representation in parliaments stalling, and a concerning rollback of women’s rights in some countries, the campaign emphasizes the urgency of immediate action, inviting members of parliament to lead by example and commit to transformative actions that advance gender equality.
