MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russia’s progress in gender equality practices, especially within law enforcement and countering terrorism, is impressive, the senior adviser on gender issues in the Organization for Security Co-Operation in Europe (OSCE) said Thursday.
"I was impressed by the efforts of the Russian Federation to include women in law enforcement and security policies," Miroslava Beham said as quoted in an OSCE press release.
Beham urged Moscow to share the experience in introducing these practices with the OSCE member states.
The OSCE is a global security organization recognized by the United Nations, comprising 57 participating states, and working in crisis management, conflict prevention and post-conflict rehabilitation as well as covering a broad variety of human rights issues.
