Building Democracy - Training World Leaders

Project Parity is a not-for-profit company limited by guarantee. Established in 1996, it is an NGO ( Non Governmental Organisation) working to increase the percentage of women in local, national and international politics and public decision-making positions. It's work is focussed on emerging democracies. Project Parity is an all-party non-partisan NGO. So far Project Parity has worked in 13 countries.
