Abstract :As the first country in the East to grant women the right to vote and be elected, new political strategies were defined in Azerbaijan after gaining independence in 1991. The main problems related to gender equality, which is one of the issues included in the new political strategies, are women’s poor representation in public administration, early marriages, gender-based violence, women working in lower-paid jobs in the labor force, etc. During the presidency of both the father and son Aliyev, official international conventions on gender equality and women’s rights were signed and official laws were adopted. The issue of gender equality and women’s rights in official decisions of presidents, programs of state institutions and parties, and the effectiveness of these activities will be observed in this article. The official decrees, orders, and statements of the Presidents, statistics and projects of the State Committee for Family, Women and Children Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan, gender statistics of the State Statistical Committee, the program of the ruling New Azerbaijan Party since 1995 and the data of the Milli Majlis will be analyzed as the objects of research addressed to the issues mentioned above.
