Ce qui fonctionne — République de Macédoine du Nord

North Macedonia's 40% candidate-quota law has failed to guarantee proportional women's representation in elected office, with women's parliamentary seats dropping from 42.5% in 2024 to 39.2% in 2025 despite the legal threshold, and municipal-level data showing women comprise 45% of candidates but only 36.2% of elected councillors. A media-literacy training programme partnering with pensioners' unions has demonstrated modest gains, with trained pensioners identifying disinformation 6–12% more accurately than untrained peers, and female participants in gender-focused training showing roughly double the verification-skill improvements. North Macedonia's €150,000 AI investment assistant (ADA) became non-functional after two years due to a procurement lapse rather than technical failure, reflecting a broader state audit finding that none of 48 AI projects co-financed between 2018 and 2023 reached operational deployment in the public sector.
