Women form a larger part of our society. However, the history of women's struggle to stand on par with their male counterparts is not very bright. From the voting process in the 1980s until today, the conflict continues in one form or another. Developed countries have improved their situation better while developing countries are still struggling. The integration of gender equality into the goals of sustainable development by the United Nations reflects the need to advance the situation of women throughout the world. The commitment shown by developing countries towards this goal is commendable. However, you must also realize the importance of their voice and incorporate it into the system on an equal footing with their male counterparts, the subjects on which strategies are developed, the laws that are implemented and the actions taken.

The first step to empower women and women to make their voices heard is to participate in politics. The importance of being an active participant in the political process is realized by the fact that only after they are elected and after they become part of the legislature will they be in a position to make their voices heard and be able to communicate grievances and problems faced by women in general. And finally to form laws that benefit women as well.

Five reasons women are reluctant to participate in politics:

1. Cultural barriers: In most developing countries, the role of women is to be mothers, sisters and daughters. She is supposed to look after the house. They are not allowed to choose the profession they want in the first place, even if they are allowed to do so; the option is limited to women.

2. Lack of education: First, the level of education in these countries does not reach the required level. Educated women prefer to stay safe by joining professions such as teaching and so on. Second, most women do not have the requisite knowledge about operations, and women are not given access to the experience of contributing to important policy-making issues because of this. This further deteriorates their status.

3. Institutional barriers: include processes and procedures that make it difficult for women to survive in the work scenario. To adapt to be accepted in a particular environment of the organization, women need to transform their feminine behavior into certain masculine flows that isolate them in society or in the other scenario create great pressure on them to maintain a balance of work and life.

4. The patriarchal system: The patriarchal system is spread in every area in the developing countries. Women are not allowed by male family members in the first place to identify this area. If they choose to do so, they have to confront patriarchal culture in their work environment and also undermine their skills and ignore their voices.

5. Economic dependency: This is also a major reason, as most women in developing countries retain domestic chores; they rely heavily on their male members. This economic dependence not only destroys their level of trust, but also discourages them from showing such intentions or desires.
