The progress and urbanization of societies can be measured in part by the extent of women's participation in political life, which is considered a main pillar in this development process (Alsop, 2005). Omani women have received government support to empower them in all areas of life since the renaissance in 1970 under the leadership of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said (may God have mercy on him), and their position has become prominent in Omani society, bringing them equality with men. Despite this, the paper will show a severe low of Omani women's participation in international Governmental Organisations (IGOs). According to the UN Women Report (2017), the percentage of women working in the United Nations reached 42.8% by the end of 2017. The number of Omani women working in the United Nations without a scholarship at the time of this research was only three women (S. Al-Habsi, Personal Communications, Oct 9, 2020). There are limited statistics on the number of Omani women who work in these organisations in either government appointments or a personal capacity. The main objective of this study was to explore the reasons behind the nonparticipation of Omani women in international Governmental Organisations. Data was collected by following mixed methods to achieve reliability in answering the research questions. This study collected numbers, statistics, and crucial information on the extent of the presence of women in these organisations in general and Omani women in particular. All of the data required to achieve the purpose of the study were collected from primary and secondary resources. The first method in collecting data were semi-structured interviews with openended questions to give respondents freedom to present their thoughts on the reasons behind this serious low of participation of Omani women in such organisations. In addition, a questionnaire was given in Arabic to a group of women working in the government sector in various fields. In addition, a questionnaire was given in English to a segment of 130 employees working in the political field. Secondary data came from books, magazines, official websites, official reports, newspapers, and scholarly journals. The collection of primary data—the basic information answering the main question of this study—aimed to explore the rationale behind the low participation of Omani women P a g e
