Background of the Study
Geopolitical alliances play a significant role in shaping national policies, including gender equality initiatives. Bwari Area Council, located within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of Nigeria, has seen a rise in efforts to address gender inequality, with various stakeholders—including international organizations, local authorities, and civil society groups—collaborating on gender-focused policies. These alliances, often shaped by geopolitical considerations, influence the design, implementation, and outcomes of gender equality policies. However, the influence of external actors and international geopolitics on local governance structures and their impact on gender equality in Bwari remains underexplored (Ogunleye & Tade, 2024). This study will investigate how these geopolitical alliances affect gender equality policies in Bwari Area Council, focusing on their implications for women's empowerment and gender-inclusive governance.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
Geopolitical alliances have influenced gender equality policies in Bwari Area Council, but the extent to which these external alliances align with local needs and realities remains unclear. While these alliances can promote gender equality, they may also lead to policies that do not adequately reflect the socio-cultural dynamics of the region. This research will examine how geopolitical alliances shape gender policies and their effectiveness in promoting gender equality in Bwari.

1.5 Research Hypothesis
-
Geopolitical alliances significantly influence the design and implementation of gender equality policies in Bwari Area Council.
-
The current gender equality policies in Bwari Area Council do not fully address the unique needs of the region’s women.

Aligning gender equality policies with local socio-cultural dynamics will improve the effectiveness of these initiatives in Bwari.
1.6 Significance of the Study
This study is significant for policymakers, gender advocates, and international stakeholders working on gender equality in Nigeria. It will provide a deeper understanding of how geopolitical alliances shape local policies and suggest ways to improve the implementation of gender equality initiatives at the local government level (Ogunleye & Tade, 2024).
