 abstract={Gender inequality persists globally, especially in politics, where women encounter significant barriers to equal participation and representation. Unlike the Western framing, where non-binary identities are central to the gender inequality discourse, the Ghanaian context limits the discussion to binary and biological determinism, conceptualizing gender inequality as the disparity between men and women. In Ghana, political gender inequality reflects broader societal challenges related to gender roles and representation. Despite previous research examine this phenomenon from various angles, a gap remains in exploring how politicians' access to and utilization of social capital contribute to gender inequality in politics. This thesis employs social capital theory, drawing from Bourdieu's and Nahapiet and Ghoshal's frameworks, to investigate how social capital and its utilization shape female political participation in Ghana's Northern and Greater Accra regions},
