Abstract
A new global research initiative, entitled “Democratic Governance, Women`s Rights and Gender Equality” will support new research on whether and how governance systems, institutions and processes are responding to women’s rights, needs, and interests. With a focus on the following regions in the developing South: West, East and Southern Africa; South, Southeast, and East Asia; the Middle East and North Africa; and Latin America and the Caribbean, the initiative addresses three thematic areas: women’s political participation, rule of law and human rights, and transitional and post-conflict situations. This article introduces the project.
