While in Rwanda and New Zealand women make up more than half of their respective country’s legislatures, in Nigeria and Japan, women comprise a small minority in parliament. In some countries, the number of women in legislatures is stagnating, whereas in South Africa and Senegal women have quickly attained high levels of parliamentary representation. What can we learn from different developments across the globe about how to increase the number of women in parliaments?

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
