Helsinki Pledges on Gender-sensitive Parliaments in the OSCE region
In this document, Members of Parliament from across the OSCE region, who gathered in Helsinki on 3–4 June 2025 for the workshop “Realising Gender Equality in and by Parliaments”, reaffirm their commitment to building parliaments that reflect equality and diversity. They aim for gender parity (50:50 between women and men) and for inclusive representation of all voices — across generations and backgrounds.
