The Pan-African Parliament (PAP) Permanent Committee on Gender, Family, Youth and People with Disability has convened virtually to conduct an assessment on the formulation of a Gender Parity Model Law. The Committee was also briefed on the status of the African Model Law on Disability adopted by the PAP Plenary in October 2019.
In March 2020, African Parliamentarians held a workshop on ‘Achieving Women’s Empowerment through a Gender Parity Model Law: A Parliamentary Solution for Sustainable and Inclusive Economic Growth by 2023’. The general objective of the consultations was to provide the foundation for drafting a Gender Parity Model Law. The meeting also sensitized Parliamentarians on the Maputo Protocol and the extent of implementation, while igniting sharing of experiences on legislation aimed at promoting gender equality and the rights of women.
