Youth Policy

The foundation of youth policy in modern independent Azerbaijan was laid by the National Leader Heydar Aliyev. After the Great Leader returned to power in 1993, at the request and insistence of the people, paying attention to the young generation became one of the priority directions of state policy, and many signed documents determined the goals, principles and directions of youth policy, as well as its organizational and legal foundations.

As a result of the successful continuation of this policy by Mr. President Ilham Aliyev, today the youth of Azerbaijan actively participate in all spheres of the country. More than 20 adopted laws, strategies, state programs and other normative-legal acts include the provision of state care to the young generation. In our country, the Presidential Award for youth has been established, 2007 has been declared the "Year of Youth", the Azerbaijan Youth Foundation, the "Youth House" network of social service institutions have been created, and state support mechanisms have been formed to represent young people at international events and support their ideas and initiatives.

Gender policy

The concept of gender equality includes equal rights, duties and opportunities of people, regardless of gender. This factor, which plays an important role in the development of society, is one of the important factors for ensuring equal access to education, employment and career. Studies have shown that countries with a high level of gender equality have more stable economic indicators.

Trade unions are also an active participant in promoting gender equality.

Trade unions, as organizations that defend the interests of workers, play an important role in achieving gender equality in the workplace. The main areas of activity in this area are protection of workers ' rights, education and information, promotion of relevant changes in legislation, support of women in the trade union.

So, trade unions:

  • by actively fighting against gender-based discrimination, it protects the rights of both women and men;
  • organize seminars and trainings to inform employees about gender equality issues;
  • support legislative initiatives that promote gender equality;
  • the greater representation of women in the leadership of the union leads to a careful consideration of their interests and problems. Trade unions organize special programs for the development of women's leadership skills and career growth;
  • they serve as a platform in building support networks to ensure gender equality. This stimulates the exchange of experience and helps to find effective solutions.
