Madaba, Sept. 5 (Petra) — The Shabab42 Foundation, which is
implementing a project funded by the King Abdullah II Fund for
Development (KAFD) to raise awareness of women’s political
participation in Madaba, organized a dialogue session bringing
together MP Dina Al-Bashir and a group of young women from the
governorate to discuss women’s political participation and their role
in party and political life.

The session addressed the importance of strengthening the presence of
Jordanian women in the political arena and encouraging young women to
engage in public and party activities. Participants also discussed
the main challenges facing women in reaching decision-making
positions and participating effectively in political life.

begins with awareness of rights and responsibilities, as well as the
ability to engage in dialogue and raise issues affecting society.

participating young women, during which they exchanged views and
raised questions about women’s experiences in political and party
work, as well as ways to strengthen their participation and expand
their presence in positions of responsibility and decision-making.
