Abstract
This scholarly article undertakes a comprehensive examination of the prevailing dynamics surrounding women's engagement in leadership roles within the socio-political and economic framework of Uzbekistan. It critically analyzes the multifaceted challenges impeding their active participation in decision-making processes, alongside identifying institutional and policy-driven opportunities that may facilitate their increased representation. Notwithstanding the measurable advancements achieved in promoting gender equality, entrenched structural and cultural impediments persist. Accordingly, the study articulates a set of evidence-based strategic interventions aimed at cultivating inclusive leadership models and systematically empowering women across diverse societal sectors.
