Political participation and women empowerment have become increasingly important topics in recent times. Women empowerment refers to the process of creating a more equitable society in which women can exercise their rights, access opportunities, and have a voice in decision-making processes. Democracy requires the full participation of all citizens, including women, in political processes. Participation of women in politics is not only a basic right but also a vital aspect of democratic societies and is also essential for creating more representative and responsive governance. The link between political participation and women empowerment is undeniable, as political participation is one of the most effective ways for women to achieve empowerment. This article aims to explore the importance of political participation in women empowerment. It begins by defining the concepts of political participation and women empowerment, examines the various ways in which political participation can lead to women empowerment and constitutional commitments for promoting women empowerment. It also emphasizes the significance of political participation of women in creating a more equitable and just society. Finally, the article concludes by highlighting the barriers to women's political participation and offers suggestions for overcoming these barriers.
