Member of Mongolian parliament Ms G.Uyanga participated in the first Eurasian Women's Forum that took place in St.Petersburg, Russia, on the 24 to 25 of September.

The forum was attended by women from more than 85 countries.

During the event, MP Ms Uyanga made a presentation on the topic “The role of women of neighboring countries in regional development and stability”. In her report she has criticized that when touching upon the gender theme, we only discuss global issues or problems of a given country; thus, regional issues are usually neglected. She has emphasized that relations between neighboring and regional countries are basic and fundamental relations and we should transfer global issue through regions starting from the neighboring countries in order to resolve women’s issues.

Talking about Mongolian women, she noted that many mongolian and foreign scholars highlighted how Mongolian women played a great role in society. They had considerable economical and social opportunities, even more political freedom and quite a bit of influence.
