1. Introduction

Within the framework of the International IDEA and NIMD "Respect for Women's Political Rights: Participation and Leadership of Women in Politics in Tunisia" (RWPR) project, International IDEA and IPU organized a second workshop on “Women working together in Parliament” on 6-7 June 2015 in Hammamet.

International IDEA has organized on 29 December 2014, in partnership with CAWTAR and with the support of IPU, a first workshop on the collective work of women in Parliament in order to provide options for formal and informal strategies that women parliamentarians could adopt in order to better obtain influence in parliament (See: Concept Note- Annex 1).

The objectives of the workshop are to:  Build the spirit of teamwork among women parliamentarians  Provide a forum for discussion, reflection and sharing of experiences among women MPs on parliamentary mechanisms for promoting gender equality and women’s rights (i.e. women’s caucuses and specialized committees).  Provide comparative real–life experiences about strategies for women parliamentarians to work together in parliament.  Promote discussion and reflection among women parliamentarians on informal cross– party forum for women parliamentarians to work together.

11 women MPs representing three Tunisian political parties (Nidaa Tounes, Ennahdha, National Front for Salvation) participated to the workshop, beside a parliamentarian from Senegal and a parliamentarian from Belgium (See: Attendance list- Annex 2).

The participatory nature adopted in the four sessions of the workshop (See: Final Agenda- Annex 3) facilitated the achievement of the workshop’s objectives. This general report summarizes the main conclusions and recommendations of the workshop.

2. Comparative real –life experience on women parliamentarians working together through informal venues

Mrs. Zeina HELAL, a member of Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), pointed out in her presentation on the guidelines for women’s caucuses that the percentage of women in national parliaments all over the world is about 22 per cent and that means that women constitute a minority group within parliaments. It follows therefore, that if they wish to have an independent voice as women parliamentarians, get the voice of women in general heard, express solidarity with each other and gain influence in the parliament, they need to be

brought together under one structure or entity. There are 81 structures for women MPs currently functioning in the world. These structures aim at:

- establishing a multi-party cooperation by uniting women from different political parties around issues where they explore common grounds,

- supporting women in gaining influence in parliaments,

- building the capacity of women parliamentarians and

- integrating a gender approach into the work and structure of the parliament.

It should be noted that there is a distinction to be drawn between parliamentary committees on gender issues and gender equality on the one hand and informal women’s caucuses. Committees are parliamentary structures, which are scrupulously regulated by the Rules of Procedure of the parliament and could have legislative powers whereas women’s groups are informal structures and have more flexibility in the conduct of their work. It is possible to establish both mechanisms in parallel and develop coordination between them.

Creating a parliamentary women’s caucus goes through four stages:

- The first stage: It involves the evaluation of the context which surrounds the creation of the caucus. To this end, it is important to choose the appropriate time at which it becomes clear how relevant it is to create such structure for women parliamentarians and where cooperation is possible between the various political parties regarding issues which allow women to share common grounds. It is to be noted that at this stage the support from within and outside the parliament for the structure to be established ought to be assessed.

- The second stage: It consists in laying the groundwork for the creation of the structure. It is required at this stage to determine how to establish this structure and involve the largest possible number of women parliamentarians from across the political spectrum in the preparation process. In line with this, a restricted committee in charge of considering the various options for establishing this structure could be formed. It is also required at this stage to identify the mission, objectives, name of this structure and its relation with the Parliament.

- The third stage: It covers the conduct of the work of the structure. At this stage, requirements for membership, the mandate and the method of selecting the governing body of the structure should be determined as well as setting out the procedures for the meetings and how to make decisions and get funds for the structure.

- The fourth stage: It consists in initiating the work. During this phase, the structure is expected to develop and implement an action plan through a number of activities.

Mrs. Awa GUEYE, Vice-President of the National Assembly of Senegal and President of the "Collectif des femmes parlementaires", indicated that this caucus was formed more than 20 years ago and has provided a framework for the exchange of views and proposals between women parliamentarians from all parties. The caucus does not take any decision or propose draft laws for it is an informal body.

This caucus aims to promote greater presence of women in the parliament, strengthen the capacity of women parliamentarians and foster the exchange of experience among them. This group also seeks to fight poverty suffered by women in Senegal and violence against women and achieve the Millennium Development Goals, particularly those related to gender equality.

Mrs. Awa GUEYE noted that the percentage of women in the Parliament had never exceeded 22% until 2007. She added that the electoral law was amended in May 2010 to apply the principle of parity between men and women on candidate lists for the legislative elections with back up from Women’s Parliamentary Caucus and support from international and civil society organizations. The new law mandates parity among men and women on candidate lists as a requirement for candidate registration. Thanks to this amendment, the percentage of women in the Senegalese Parliament, following the legislative elections of 2012, rose to 42.7 % (64 out of 150 MPs).

With regards to assigning duties within this group, the Vice-President of the National Assembly of Senegal was selected to preside over the caucus because she serves in an office which is the closest to senior decision-making positions. The Vice-President was chosen from the Opposition. Three committees from the caucus are chaired by the government coalition parties (the Training Committee, the Legislative Committee and the Institutional Relations Committee). The chairwomanship of the Social Committee and the Communication Committee was given to the Opposition. All these committees liaise with technical and financial partners and the Senegalese Association of Women Jurists which particularly contributes to the work of the Legislative Committee by preparing female members for committee and plenary sessions.

As for funding, the committee relies particularly on the support of technical and financial partners in addition to the voluntary contributions of female members from the Social Committee.

Between the years 2000 and 2015, the women’s caucus has accomplished a number of achievements, the most important of which have been reviewing the Tax Code to establish

tax justice ending gender inequality in this regard, developing a gender-sensitive national budget, reforming the Nationality Code so as to enable Senegalese women married to non- nationals the right to grant their nationality to their husbands and children and designating a genre focal point in each ministry. As for future projects of the caucus, these include reviewing parental authority to be exercised by both parents, preparing a draft law which extends real property rights granted to women, amending the Rules of Procedure of the National Assembly of Senegal to expand women’s representation in the Bureau of the Assembly.

Mrs. Olga ZRIHEN, a member of the Parliament of the Federation Wallonia-Brussels and the Senate of Belgium, explained that in each of the seven parliaments in Belgium (both at the provincial and federal levels) a special committee on equal opportunities for the two sexes and fighting violence against women is set up. The parliament provides these committees with the means to work. However these committees undertake tasks other than legislative and are thereby required to work through the standing committees to pass their decisions. For example, to adopt a law requiring equal pay between men and women in the Parliament of the Federation Wallonia-Brussels, the bill has to go through the Committee on Economy and on Finance.

Mrs. Olga ZRIHEN holds the view that informal forums provide greater freedom of action and more effectiveness unlike working in committees which is dominated by partisanship. Occasionally, a given party may see no benefit in approving decisions which support the political participation of women and may consider that these decisions do not fit within the party strategies as is the case with adopting gender parity in candidate lists. Political parties represented in the Parliament have previously opposed this move; however collective pressure exercised by women parliamentarians forced them to change their position.

Mrs. Olga ZRIHEN underlined the importance of encouraging male MPs to participate in all actions which aim to achieve gender equality for their role is crucial in changing the mindsets and breaking with discriminatory practices. She also highlighted the need to rely on detailed statistics disaggregated by sex in carrying out the legislative work in order to properly identify the needs of women.

3. Joint work between women parliamentarians in Tunisia since 2011

Mrs. Soulef KSANTINI, a member of the National Constituent Assembly (NCA) and now the Assembly of the Representatives of the People (ARP) representing Ennahdha Party, pointed out in her presentation on the NCA experience that the idea of forming a women’s caucus within the NCA was not conceived during the phase of the constitutional process due to the fact that all efforts were mainly focused on making progress in the drafting of the

Constitution. She added that the political tensions which were in play obstructed the formation of such caucus. It was only at a later stage of the constitutional process and particularly through debates held by the Commission on Rights and Freedoms that the idea was taken up in respect with the importance which should be attributed to including in the new Constitution an active presence of women in political and parliamentary work. Among the main gains that were achieved are Article 46 of the Tunisian Constitution which stipulates that the state shall strive to achieve equal representation for women and men in elected councils and the rule on vertical parity and alternation for candidate lists which was further endorsed into the Electoral Law of 2014.

Mrs. Soulef KSANTINI indicated that among the new practices which have been introduced at the NCA is organizing lunch meetings at the NCA restaurant for women parliamentarians to discuss a number of issues of common concern.

Mrs. Hela HAMMI, a member of NCA and now ARP representing Nahdha Party, explained that the representation of women has declined from four female members out of ten in the NCA Bureau to one female member out of ten in the ARP Bureau.1 Mrs. Hela HAMMI referred to an initiative proposed by Mrs. Mamia EL BENNA, the former Secretary of State for Environment, which brought together women from different parties represented in the NCA with a view to finding a way out from the political crisis that erupted following the assassination of MP Mohamed BRAHMI. She pointed out that political tensions led some parties to eventually ask their female members to withdraw from this initiative.

Mrs. Hela HAMMI pointed out that the ARP Rules of Procedure only include the creation of a Special Commission on Women, Family, Children, the Youth, and the Elderly Affairs while no reference is made to the possibility of forming caucuses. She also considered that the time is not appropriate to amend the Rules of Procedure in this regard.

Mrs. Bochra BELHAJ HMIDA, a member of ARP representing the Party of Nidaa Tounes and Chairperson of the Commission on Rights, Freedoms and External Relations therein, noted that she submitted a proposal to amend the ARP Rules of Procedure with a view to forming a caucus of women parliamentarians that serves as a forum for the exchange of views on issues of common concern uniting women parliamentarians regardless of their political differences and aims at realizing women’s rights which are safeguarded in the new Constitution.

Mrs. Bochra BELHAJ HMIDA admitted that the proposal was submitted prematurely for it was not properly discussed by the members of the parliamentary bloc to which she belongs. She added that the lack of coordination with the Ennahdha Party led to the submission of two different projects whereby neither was passed. She added that the ground

1 Without counting the Speaker and the two Deputy Speakers of NCA and ARP. 6

should hereby be better prepared before trying again. For her, achieving gender parity is one of the few issues where consensus among women parliamentarians is brought forward since gender parity is already established on a de jure basis by the Constitution and is automatically applied in all draft laws on elected bodies. She thinks, however, that there are other issues which require careful consideration such as equality, individual freedoms and fighting violence against women where consensus among women parliamentarians is not yet reached.

It is recommended in this respect to resort to existing mechanisms such as the Commission on Women, Family, Children, the Youth, and the Elderly Affairs. In addition, joint meetings could also be held between this Commission and the Commission on Rights and Freedoms.

Mrs. Bochra BELHAJ HMIDA underlined the importance of developing collective strategic planning by women parliamentarians.

4. Training on team building

The training on team building (See: Content of the training on team building- Annex 4) aimed at:

1. Explore what makes the success of a team;

2. Define the method and the tools needed for an efficient teamwork;

3. Facilitate the dialogue and communication between Tunisian MPs;

During the training, the importance of common values was noted, as they are principles guiding the decisions and activities of the team. The participants on the following common values:

- Communicational values:

o Tolerance;

o Solidarity;

o Cooperation;

- Organizational values:

o Transparency/integrity ;

o Responsibility;

o Discipline.

The participants have also discussed the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) in their collective work and have drawn the following table:

Strengths Weaknesses

• Human capital: Good • Lack of solidarity representativeness in ARP • Partisan allegiance • Experience in the NCA for some MPs • Mutual political bias • Presence of many young women MPs • Absence of strategy • Will, commitment, ambition • Lack of experience in parliamentary • Expertise of MPs in many fields (law, work economy, finance, health, computer • Absence of adapted infrastructure and sciences…) means in Parliament • Acceptation and mutual respect • Lack of communication and empathy • Diversity between the MPs • Lack of democratic culture and acceptance of diversity • Absence of a long-term vision • Lack of time and availability • Disagreements between the members • Lack of discipline, organization and participation

Opportunities Threats

• Support from Civil Society and State • Extremist threats institutions • Partisan political calculations • International support • Populist speeches • Constitutional and legal framework • Resistance to change • Effects of media coverage (people • Disagreements between political cannot be against publicly) parties • Length of the legislature • Political instability • Can be a model for the Arab world • Political transhumance • Support from male MPs, politicians • Lack of financing and media • Amount of parliamentary work • Symbolic dates (13 August: National Women’s day; 8 March: International Women’s day; 25 November: International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women)

5. Recommendations

Women parliamentarians who participated in the workshop expressed their conviction that the role of an informal women caucus in parliament could be important in promoting solidarity among women parliamentarians from different political parties, gaining more influence in the Assembly and could act in parallel with the special Commission on Women, Family, Children, the Youth, and the Elderly Affairs which was established by virtue of Article 93 of the ARP Rules of Procedure.

The following recommendations were developed by the workshop participants:

1. Ensuring the preparation of an appropriate ground for the creation of an informal caucus of women parliamentarians. It is recommended in this regard to raise the awareness of political parties by holding advocacy meetings within parliamentary blocs and preparatory meetings with ARP Speaker and Bureau.

2. The importance of getting the support of male party leaders, whether from within or outside the Assembly, because they could play a crucial role in changing the mindsets and breaking with discriminatory practices, which will contribute directly and effectively to supporting women at all levels.

3. Choosing a symbolic date such as Women’s National Day to announce the initiative.

4. The importance of choosing issues where consensus among women parliamentarians from different political parties is achieved to make progress in this regard such as reinforcing the presence of women in decision-making positions within the Parliament (particularly within the Bureau of ARP) and the image of women in the media.

5. Call for civil society to support this initiative.

Annex 1: Concept Note Women Working Together in Parliament- Workshop2 June 5th -7th, 2015- Tunisia /Hammamet North - Hotel Radisson Blu

Introduction The joint International IDEA and Netherlands Institute for Multiparty Democracy’s (NIMD) program “Respect for women’s political rights: participation and leadership of women in politics in Tunisia” was launched in Tunisia in April 2014. It tries to address the factors behind

the low presence and leadership of women in political parties in Tunisia. Furthermore, it aims to contribute to the reduction in the number and type of barriers that impede women’s entry into, and retention in, political parties.

The Tunisian Assembly of the Representatives of the People (ARP) was elected in late October 2014 and was inaugurated as the new Tunisian parliament on 2 December, 2014. After the announcement of results it included 68 women parliamentarians (31.33%). However, in May 2015, and following the appointment of 6 male MPs as members of the new government (they were replaced by the women candidates succeeding them on their respective lists), the ARP now counts a total of 72 female MPs which represent 33.179 % of the MPs.

After the election of the ARP the second year of the ‘Respect for Women’s Rights’ project (2015) will endeavor to identify the barriers that impacted female members of political parties’ participation and success in the 2014 elections and will focus on issues of gender sensitive policy making and legislative reforms that political parties can promote for more effective women’s political participation and leadership.

The Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) research shows that women parliamentarians are the first defenders of gender equality in parliaments23 although this responsibility should be shared by all parliamentarians.Over the next five years, the new parliament will be focused on translating Tunisia’s new constitutional provisions into law.It is very likely that women parliamentarianswill face multiple challenges in supporting gender sensitive legal4 and policy5reforms. It is therefore it is crucial thatthey work together to reach consensus across party lines. Rationale for the workshop On December 29th, 2014 International IDEA, in partnership with the Center of Arab women for training and researches (CAWTAR)and with the support of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), organized a workshop on “Women Working Together in Parliament“. The workshop was organized in the early stages of the Assembly of Representatives of People’s (ARP) preparations of the rules of procedures in order to sensitize and the raise awareness of women members of parliament (MPs) on the various mechanisms that can strengthen women’s

Many of these laws will relate to women’s rights or have an impact on them. 5From a policy level, the government will have to review and design several public policies that will have an impact on women. It is important that these policies take into consideration women’s needs and meet their expectations. 10

political impact within the parliament. This was meant to support their contribution in, and impact on, the decisions to be made out of the debate that will take place on the ARP‘s rules of regulation and the commissions to be established.

By the end of the workshop participants recommended to form two parallel and complementary formal mechanisms to be provided for in the ARP’s rules of procedures: 1) A permanent and thematic parliamentary commission to be named “the Commission of Women and Family Affairs” or the “Equality” commission, with legislative functions and the mandate to oversee the work of the government, and; 2) A women’s parliamentary caucus that works across party lines whosemain mission is to help build the capacity of women parliamentarians and help catalyze and mobilize women MPs, politicians and CSOs to enforce the constitutional provisions related to women’s rightsand equality between men and women.

Neither of thesetwo proposed amendments presented by women MPs passed in the ARP’s plenary session, however, article 93 of the adopted version of ARP’s rule of procedures6establishes a special commission on women, family, children, youth and elderly affairs7.

On 27 March 2015, the MP Ms. Bochra Belhaj Hmida once again raised the issue of cross- party forums for women parliamentarians, announcing on the radio she prepared an initiative aimed at establishing a women’s parliamentary group.

In order to further support cross-party work among Tunisian women’s parliamentarians, International IDEA and IPU decided to organize a second workshop on strategies for reinforcing women’s influence in parliament. Prior to this discussion the two organizations will host a training on team building. The aims of the training are to: 1) Build the spirit of teamwork among women parliamentarians and; 2) Sensitize them on the importance of communication and working in teams and; 3) Explain possible mechanisms for successful group work.

After this workshop it is expected that women parliamentarians will have a better idea ofhow women from different parliamentary groups(different teams) could work together to achieve

6- The members of the ARP‘s commission to prepare the draft rules of regulation were appointed on 4 December, 2014 and they held they first meeting on 5 December, 2014. The ARP’s rule of procedures was adopted on February 2nd, 2015 7- Article 93 of the ARP’s rule of proceduresstates : “The ARP has 9 special commissions which shall examine all matters referred to it as well as following up on all matters and issues within fall within its competence. These commissions are : … 6- commission on women, family, children, youth and elderly affairs: shall follow up on all matters and issues related to women, family, children, youth and elderly, as well as monitoring the implementation of government programs aimed at advancing their situation, providing care to them and monitoring the respect of the principle of equal opportunities”. 11

a common direction or cause (team work). The organizers consider this training crucial for the success of the cross –party forum that women parliamentarians could set up together.

Objectives of the workshop The objectives of the workshop are to:  Build the spirit of teamwork among women parliamentarians  Provide a forum for discussion, reflection and sharing of experiences among women MPs on parliamentary mechanisms for promoting gender equality and women’s rights (i.e. women’s caucuses and specialized committees).  Provide comparative real–life experiences about strategies for women parliamentarians to work together in parliament.  Promote discussion and reflection among women parliamentarians on informal cross– party forum for women parliamentarians to work together.

Expected outcomes It is expected that after the workshop women parliamentarians will be better able to:  Decide on the way forward regardingtailored mechanisms that they would want for dialogue and consensus building among women parliamentarians  Understand how the informal and formal mechanisms can work simultaneously  Work together and be better aware of the advantages of teamwork

Participants The workshop will gather all the women parliamentarians at the ARP. Women Parliamentarians from Belgium and Senegal as well as specialists of women’s caucuses will share their experience with the Tunisian women parliamentarians

Languages of the workshop: The workshop will be conducted in Arabic and French.

Date and location of the workshop The workshop will be organized in Hammamet North in Tunisia at Hotel Radisson Blu on June 6th and 7th, 2015. Organizers booked a bus to collect all participants on June 5th at 19.00 from the parliament.
