March 6, 2026 Women

Despite gradual progress, women still hold only slightly more than a quarter of seats in national parliaments worldwide. This is the second consecutive year of growth in representation. remain the slowest since 2017. According to a new report from the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), as of January 1, 2026, women held 27.5 percent of parliamentary seats worldwide – slightly up from 27.2 percent the previous year.

The report is based on data from 49 countries where parliamentary renewals took place in 62 chambers in 2025.

The greatest progress

The largest increase in women's representation last year was recorded in Kyrgyzstan. The share of women in the country's parliament increased by 12.9 percentage points. It was followed by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (12.3 points) and the upper house of Saint Lucia's parliament (9.1 points).

Despite slow global progress, some countries have achieved record-breaking results. In Australia, women will hold 46 percent of parliamentary seats after the 2025 elections—the highest percentage in the country's history. In the Czech Republic, the proportion of women in the lower house increased from 25 percent to one-third of members. In Ecuador, women held a record 45 percent of seats in the National Assembly.

The year also marked a historic milestone for Japan: for the first time in the country's history, a woman became prime minister. Following the July elections, the proportion of women in the upper house of parliament reached a record 29.4 percent.

Reduction in the number of female speakers

At the same time, the proportion of women holding parliamentary speaker positions has significantly declined globally. Currently, it stands at 19.9 percent (54 speakers), compared to 23.7 percent a year earlier.

Of the 75 new speakers elected or appointed in 2025, only 12 are women.

Regional differences

The highest level of women's representation remains in the Americas. In 2025, women accounted for 36.1 percent of the members elected to 20 parliamentary chambers in 13 countries in the region. Overall, as of the beginning of 2026, women held 35.6 percent of parliamentary seats in the Americas.

The region is also home to four of the world's seven countries that have achieved gender parity, or have more women than men in parliament: Bolivia, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Mexico. Elsewhere, Rwanda, Andorra, and the United Arab Emirates have achieved this level of representation.

The lowest level of women's representation remains in the Middle East and North Africa, where women hold an average of only 16.2 percent of parliamentary seats.

In three countries – Oman, Tuvalu and Yemen – there are no women members of parliament at all in the lower houses of parliament or unicameral parliaments.

The role of quotas

The report shows that quotas remain one of the most effective tools for increasing women's representation.

In 2025, women held an average of 30.9 percent of seats in parliaments with legislative or voluntary quotas. In parliaments without quotas, this figure was 23.3 percent.

Pressure and violence

Violence and pressure against female politicians remains a serious obstacle. An IPU study found that 76 percent of female parliamentarians in the Asia-Pacific region have experienced psychological violence.

Women deputies more often become targets of threats and intimidation from society—both online and offline. Seventy-six percent of women and 68 percent of men surveyed reported this experience.

Experts warn that threats could deter women from participating in politics and slow progress towards gender equality in representative bodies.

Some countries are already taking steps to combat this phenomenon. For example, the Philippine Electoral Commission intervened after male candidates made derogatory remarks about female politicians, and the Colombian parliament passed a law aimed at preventing and punishing violence against women in politics.

The Inter-Parliamentary Union is a global organization of national parliaments, founded in 1889. Today, it comprises 183 national parliaments and 15 regional parliamentary organizations. The IPU promotes democracy and protects the rights of parliamentarians worldwide.

Dushanbe, March 6 (Xinhua) – US military action against Iran has devalued international law and could have serious consequences for the international and regional situation, Sputnik reported on Friday, citing Tajik regional expert Kosym Bekmuhammad.

According to him, under the guise of negotiations, Washington tried to create the impression that it had not initially sought war, but was allegedly forced to resort to military action due to Tehran's position.

The expert noted that some countries, primarily the United States, which actively proclaim the protection of human rights, democracy, and freedom, simultaneously violate generally accepted norms of the international order, including the prohibition of the use of force, respect for state sovereignty, and the equality of states. "The United States and the West have played the greatest role in devaluing international law," he noted.

The expert also stated that US behavior demonstrates that Washington has replaced dialogue with force. This exacerbates international and regional instability, fuels an arms race, and creates conditions for the strengthening of extremist and terrorist groups.

RUDN University students, director, and faculty discuss their career choices

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

It's not just women scientists who shine at RUDN: among the students are rising stars, experienced teachers, and successful leaders—deans and department directors.

In honor of March 8, we asked them how they chose their profession and career path, as well as about their goals for the future.

Elvira Dovletyarova, professor, director of the Agrarian-Technological Institute (ATI) of RUDN University.

Head of the Landscape Architecture educational program. Author of approximately 80 scientific articles. Recipient of the title "Honored Worker of Education of the Russian Federation" and the Russian National Landscape Architecture Award in two nominations: "For Outstanding Achievements and Public Activity" (2017) and "Best Landscape Architecture Teacher of the Year" (2019). Organizer of major international congresses, symposiums, and conferences.

"My path to science began with pure curiosity. Even in my school years, at the Astrakhan Station for Young Naturalists, I was fascinated by the life of nature, studying its fragile changes and the mysteries of ecological phenomena. The station allowed me to determine my future direction—ecology and scientific research. This love took shape in landscape architecture—a field that became more than just a profession for me, but a calling of the heart. Today, as Vice President of the Association of Landscape Architects of Russia, I understand that not only the beauty and comfort of a city, but also its health are determined by our work. A special milestone in my life was RUDN University, where I was fortunate to establish a new program—"Garden, Park, and Landscape Construction." And thanks to the work of the Association, we were able to transform it into the field of landscape architecture. I am proud that we have been able to take ATI's infrastructure to a new level: not only by opening research centers such as SMART, the GRANUM breeding and genetics center, and a soil and environmental laboratory, but also by developing new plant varieties for agriculture and the city.

"My love for Moscow, my work in the Civic Chamber, and my work with the Association allow me to be at the forefront of events: combining scientific research on urban health with modern technological solutions. All this is to ensure that Russian cities breathe freely and remain comfortable homes for each of us. Looking forward, I have ambitious goals: developing our institute's infrastructure, creating a modern veterinary medicine cluster, and expanding partnerships with industry—from the intricacies of plant growing to pet care," says Elvira Dovletyarova.

Elizaveta Shaprinskaya, 3rd year student at the Institute of Russian Language.

She has authored 10 scientific papers, including for journals listed in the Higher Attestation Commission (HAC), Scopus, and Web of Science. She is the head of the student scientific society, a scholarship winner, and a laboratory assistant at RUDN University.

"Philology is my passion. I delve only into what ignites my inner research flame. New works, unknown authors, complex cultural concepts—all of this often finds itself in the same era, in the same artistic space, which is no less an art to describe. My path to scholarship began not with the desire to write an article at any cost, but with an attempt to find answers to the questions posed by the text. In studying literature, I actively use digital tools to analyze artistic spaces. This is precisely what is taught in my program, "Applied Digital Philology." — Elizaveta Shaprinskaya.

Elena Lylova, Associate Professor of the Department of Management of the Faculty of Economics, Candidate of Economic Sciences.

The author of over 40 scientific publications on the interaction between government and business, change management, organizational theory, and HR management.

"My scientific journey began as a student—I presented at my first conference in my second year of university. Then I met my future dissertation supervisor, Doctor of Economics and Professor Natalia Vladimirovna Vysotskaya, and I realized I wanted to be like her: smart, proactive, professional, a true leader and mentor to my students. I strive to actively develop not only in science but also in other fields: I love drawing, I organize student research projects at the Faculty of Economics, and I participate in patriotic and charitable events for children and animals. I'm constantly learning new things—I completed Sberbank's educational program and Rosmolodezh's "Voice of a Generation" program, and I received a second diploma in a retraining course in digital product design. I'm proud to have kept in touch with my graduating students over the years—it means their studies have given me not only knowledge but also friendship.

But my greatest achievement is my family and my son, Platon, who, by the way, already dreams of studying at RUDN University and then working with his mother. I love Erich Fromm's quote: "Life has no meaning except the meaning a person gives it, by fulfilling his or her potential and living fruitfully." Being myself, being in the right place, and making a difference—that's my greatest happiness! I dream of finding a balance between all areas of my life so that I can do everything I want: develop, teach, and help," says Elena Lylova.

Elizaveta Shlepotina, a 6th-year medical student majoring in General Medicine.

She is a winner and awardee of national and international conferences. She has authored over 20 scientific publications, 10 of which are listed in the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI), Higher Attestation Commission (VAK), and Scopus. She conducted research at the Morozov Children's Hospital, writing articles and theses on pediatric vascular neurosurgery, including ruptured arteriovenous malformations of the brain. In her fourth year, she went on duty at the N. N. Burdenko Military Clinical Hospital in the neurosurgery department, where she assisted in surgeries on wounded soldiers of the Soviet Military District.

"Furthermore, in 2019, I founded the Horse for Health charity project, whose main goal was the habilitation and rehabilitation of children with cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, spinal muscular atrophy, and Rett syndrome through hippotherapy, as well as the development of an evidence-based approach. As a result, after five years of the project's operation, we participated in the Moscow Region Mayor's Grant Competition, helped over 100 children with disabilities, and published approximately eight articles and theses on hippotherapy. I also assembled a team with whom we created a wonderful surgery and resuscitation club, REMEDY, at the Accreditation and Simulation Center Department, which has become a haven for us and is as dear to us as a child. We created a place for work and development, where there is the opportunity to grow professionally in an environmentally friendly environment under the responsive guidance of mentors," says Elizaveta Shlepotina.

According to the girl, she chose the professional path of a neurosurgeon in her first year.

"I finally realized I was in the right place when I was first approached for surgery. It's perhaps the only field I've ever really lit up, a challenging yet incredibly rewarding field to work in and develop in. There's a certain magic to working with the human central and peripheral nervous system. Of course, first, I want to enter residency and successfully complete it, become a good neurosurgeon, and continue to pursue research, as I already have several ambitious research ideas. And I'm constantly honing my microsurgical skills, which are an integral part of neurosurgery," says Elizaveta Shlepotina.

Congratulations to all the women of RUDN University on March 8th! May your career be filled with professional victories and achievements!

March 4, 2026 Experts from the "Reserve Embassy" Foundation in Urshelsky helped create an image of a harmonious future for the protected area

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Preserved Embassy Foundation

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

A strategic session, "The Territory's Recreational Potential as a Driver of Regional Development," was held at a school in the village of Urshelsky in the Vladimir Region. Entrepreneurs, local residents, the management of the Meshchera National Park, and representatives of the administration developed a long-term vision for the future of their land. The strategic session was moderated and led by experts from the Zapovednoye Posledstvo (Protected Embassy) Foundation.

As a reminder, the Eduard Bendersky Foundation and the Zapovednoye Posledstvo Foundation have been implementing a major joint comprehensive project to develop the cooperation area between the Meshchera National Park and the village of Urshelsky since 2026.

Ksenia Gasparyan, Development Director of the Nature Conservation Embassy Foundation, explained: "With the support of Eduard Bendersky's Foundation, extensive work has begun on developing a master plan—a strategic document for developing cooperation between Meshchera National Park and the village. Master planning as a development tool for protected areas and adjacent settlements is rare in our country, but it can achieve greater depth of thought and solutions that are truly beneficial for all parties. Today, we gathered local residents, government representatives, local businesses, and, of course, the national park to discuss opportunities, their current understanding of the situation, and to analyze future directions."

Our experts shared with the participants practical experiences in developing sustainable tourism in similar areas with similar natural and climatic conditions. Participants, in turn, were asked to consider how to develop a sustainable tourism brand, "Territory of Cooperation between Meshchera National Park and the Village of Urshelsky," where the national park and the village operate not in parallel, but together.

"There's a lot of talk in the country today about developing national parks, the entire protected area system, and the development of nature and ecotourism. The government encourages such initiatives, and society is paying close attention. Therefore, there's a significant opportunity to capitalize on this wave, this trend, to elevate the lives, work, and interactions between local residents and the national park to a new level," emphasized Alexander Zheleznyak, an ecotourism expert at the Zapovednoye Polostvo Foundation.

Participants in mixed groups analyzed the territory's strengths and weaknesses, its opportunities and threats, discussed key tourism and socioeconomic trends through 2030–2035, and sketched a vision of the future of Urshelsky and Meshchera National Parks—with new routes, eco-trails, events, and tourism jobs. Each group collected "definitely yes" and "definitely no" statements for the territory, plus initial ideas for "quick wins"—projects that can be launched in the coming months.

Participant groups shared opinions and ideas that emerged during the discussion:

"We represent a group of Moscow tourists. We were very impressed with all the proposed development options for the area. It was very difficult to disconnect from the local residents and the national park staff, who immediately began to empathize with them. For us, tourists, the national park's strengths are its natural beauty, its ecologically clean environment, which is lacking in the metropolis, mushroom and berry picking, organized campsites, and much more."

"We're thrilled that our equestrian club has created a bit of a stir, as we're the only ones developing this in the region so far. And, of course, we'll be thrilled to see the Meshchera region grow, with a steady stream of tourists coming to enjoy nature, hike the trails of Meshchera, and, of course, ride horses. We're planning to organize a children's day camp where kids can spend time in nature, learn English, learn horseback riding, and offer workshops and educational activities."

Nikolai Skulov, a contemporary scholar and writer who has dedicated over 40 works to the Meshchera region, emphasizes: "In the 1990s, Jeffrey Stilley, as an ethnographer, found similarities in some of my recordings of Meshchera residents' stories with ancient epics, including the Karelo-Finnish epic Kalevala. This epic, a treasure of world culture, was collected from the remote villages of Russia's White Sea Karelia, in ancient Olonia. And Meshchera—isn't it Olonia, only Russian?" This region has enormous cultural potential, which must be carefully developed.

Among the areas of not only environmental, but also social and cultural development of the village within the framework of the project:

Early career guidance for local children isn't about abstract lectures, but rather three clear areas: conservation, glassmaking, and tourism. A child from Urshelsky should understand that they have a choice to stay and not lose out on quality of life to a classmate who left for the regional center.

In Meshchera, they offer not only nature viewing but also running through it. Or even riding. The development of mass sports is being promoted as part of the future "Meshchera Fest" brand: runs, Nordic "entries," and water rafting—all of this is intended to bring together athletes and people who simply want to stroll through the forest.

Developing traditional cuisine: recipes for traditional local dishes have been transformed into a mouth-watering menu at the "virtual" restaurant "Urshelsky Korostel." It's quite possible that guests at the Meshchera Fest on June 7, 2026, will be able to sample them.

A questionnaire has been prepared for residents and local businesses: in it, everyone can propose their initiatives and ideas for developing the village and tourism – from a new trail to a festival.

The strategic session was organized by the Eduard Bendersky Foundation and the Zapovednoye Posledstvo Charitable Foundation.

Baku, March 6 (Xinhua) — Azerbaijan has ordered the evacuation of its embassy in Tehran and consulate general in Tabriz. Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov announced this at a briefing in Baku on Friday.

The Foreign Minister emphasized that the evacuation of diplomatic missions is being carried out as part of additional security measures, as the safety of Azerbaijani citizens is a top priority. He stated that the country's Armed Forces have been put on high alert amid regional tensions.

The official statement followed an incident on March 5, when unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) launched from Iran attacked targets in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic. Four civilians were injured in the attack.

J. Bayramov reported that he had already discussed this issue with his Iranian counterpart during a telephone conversation. "The Iranian side promised to thoroughly investigate the incident, and we are awaiting the results," the minister noted.
