Empowering Women for Elections and Political Leadership

Capacity Building Program in cooperation with the Independent Election Commission

Enhancing women’s political participation and leadership remains a key national priority in Jordan, particularly in the context of ongoing political modernisation and the strengthening of political parties. Although women's membership in political parties has increased, many women – especially those in governorates and other peripheral areas – continue to face barriers to assuming leadership roles and influencing party decision-making. To help address these challenges, the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) Jordan Office, in partnership with the Independent Election Commission (IEC), implemented a specialised capacity-building programme designed to strengthen the leadership, communication, and political engagement skills of women party members.
