Cover of Beyond Numbers

This publication is based on a qualitative study that was carried out in Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and South Sudan. The objective was to reveal the impact of the women’s movement for participation and representation in political decision making in Eastern Africa.

The study considered the impact of a critical mass of women on such areas as institutional reform culture, service delivery, ability to challenge the status quo, change laws and policies that affect women at various levels of society. In addition to demonstrating successes, the study also considered specific questions relating to the various factors that have constrained or facilitated women’s participation in national governance processes across the four East African countries.
