Resumen

ABSTRACT

 

According to the article “Global Gender Gap Report 2020” of the World Economic Forum, on gender equality ranking roles by country, women’s political participation in Vietnam has dropped ten places, from 77th in 2018 to 87th in 2019. Research results show that the majority of respondents believe both genders should play equal political roles in the country, although certain differences were observed in the attitudes of different groups of respondents on gender, age, and education level. These sub-groups also demonstrate certain notable trends when discussing measures to promote women’s political participation in Vietnam.

Los resultados de la investigación muestran que la mayoría de los encuestados cree que ambos géneros deberían desempeñar papeles políticos iguales en el país, aunque se observaron ciertas diferencias en las actitudes de los diferentes grupos de encuestados sobre género, edad y nivel educativo.
