Ensuring Equal Access to Decision-making Processes
The "Ensuring equal access to decision-making processes" forum took place in Bishkek on 12 December 2017, organized by the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) together with the OSCE Programme Office in Bishkek, the International Republican Institute (IRI), the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES) and the Legal Prosperity Foundation. The event was part of ODIHR’s project “Our right to participate – Promoting the participation of Persons with Disabilities in political and public life (Phase II)”, which aims to raise awareness and promote more inclusive and participatory societies across the OSCE region.
The event was an integral part of ODIHR’s efforts to promote the political participation of under-represented groups, such as women, youth and persons with disabilities in the OSCE region. The event allowed participants to share experiences and good practices and served as a platform for developing recommendations in this field for Kyrgyzstan.
