Inclusion Portal
The Inclusion Portal is an online one-stop repository and hub of global information that solely presents the provisions in national legislative frameworks-constitutions, political party and electoral laws on the inclusion of women, youth, Ethnicity and Indigenous Peoples, Persons with disabilities, LGBTQIA+ peoples. Addressing the various factors that reproduce exclusion and hinder the leave no one behind agenda is essential for democratic development. The Portal features country overviews or a comparative global view of the prevalence of the stipulated provisions on political inclusion of the traditionally/historically marginalised people/persons.
The Inclusion Portal is a resource/tool to inspire policy makers, democracy actors and practitioners, civil society organisations (CSOs) and other non-state actors to address the challenges on inclusion in democracy. Furthermore, the Inclusion Portal will bolster International IDEA’s technical advisory support to strengthen inclusive democracy development processes and institutions.
The information presented is an outcome of International IDEA’s review of several legislations and the continued keeping abreast of the provisions in national legislative frameworks. The Inclusion Portal is updated to present the information as of 31 March 2024. The information presented on the Inclusion Portal will be updated on a regular basis in response to the changes that will occur in the future. While International IDEA strives for accuracy and the presentation of knowledge-based information, the content might not reflect the latest information if changes occur but are not yet known.
