Women's Political Platform of Women¹s Organizations in Political Parties for the Parliamentary Elections 2007
 
Statement

Considering the situation of women in the country today, and assessing the problems that women still encounter in their daily lives although Timor-Leste is independent;

 
Conscious that the election is a democratic process where all citizens can choose those who will represent them in Government and in the Parliament likewise, political campaigns are an instrument whereby political parties can present their political programmes to all citizens and voters.
 
For this Parliamentary Election we, the representatives of women¹s organizations in the political parties, have looked at, considered and discussed the condition of women.
