Abstract
This study focuses on how women impact foreign policy, with a focus on women’s involvement in the passing of the Paris Climate Accords, also known as the Paris Agreement. Through the process of analyzing the countries that were involved in the passing of the accords, as well as the ratification, the research supplements the hypothesis that female involvement in foreign policy influences the types of policies that are passed. With a further examination of the correlation between female parliamentary representation and the governmental statues of nations, there is a slight implication of women’s involvement in the government and foreign policy as a whole.
