Summary/Abstract: Based on previous research, it can be argued that Bosnia and Herzegovina is an excellent example of separation of legal (de iure) and real (de facto) achievements of gender equality. However, neither the idealizations are justified in the first segment, nor is the leveling of what has been done so far justified in the second. It can be stated beforehand that the legislation was built on genderless legislation that has been subsequently subjected to attempts to be corrected through mechanisms of special protection of women's human rights.

- Summary/Abstract:The formal and legal aspects of gender equality in BiH need tobe seen through two levels - international and national, which have their own reflections on the other levels including the lowest level - the local community. For the needs of this research, here are some of the most important ones: The CEDAW Convention (the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, 1979), the Beijing Declaration and the Action Platform (1995), Resolution 1325 ("Women, Peace and Security", 2000) and the Council of Europe Convention on the Prevention and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence (2011, the so-called Istanbul Convention). Regarding domestic legislation, it is necessary to emphasize the importance of the Gender Equality Law in BiH and the Anti-Discrimination Law in BiH.

- Summary/Abstract:Since most of the available researches and documents that are analyzed cannot find clearly distinguished data by regions as well as separately for these two regions (one of the exceptions is the research of the CURE Foundation "Women who inspire"), a general overview with somespecifics for a better understanding of the state in the field will be done. After that we will give an overview of some local specifics. It should be noted that the regional divisions do not follow the administrative ones as four analyzed municipalities in these two regions belong to the municipality of Eastern Sarajevo, and two belong to the Romanija region.

- Summary/Abstract:One of the basic principles of the European Union whose member Bosnia and Herzegovina seeks to become is gender equality. The Amsterdam Treaty and numerous EU Directives oblige the States to contribute to the equality of women and men in their policies and programs. Gender equality is one of the 17 global goals of the Sustainable Development Program until 2030 which was adopted by the United Nations, as a result of the Millennium Declaration. The UN's most important document in the area of gender equality is the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women.255 The abolition of discrimination against women and girls, as stated in the Program, is not only a fundamental human right but has multiple effects on other areas of development. Since 2013, BiH is also a party to the Istanbul Convention.

- Summary/Abstract:Afirmative measures – Affirmative measures represent a distancing from the fundamental principle of formal equality. Namely, when, despite the principle of egalitarian equality (see equality) as a seemingly neutral area, and certain groups are still in a disadvantageous position, it is imperative to undertake affirmative measures as a remedy which, by granting certain privileges to these groups, will establish equality.
