Egypt Appoints 48 Female Judges to State Council, Marking Judicial Milestone, Statement Says

The female judges were enrolled through an entry-level pathway, a significant step in the country's push for women's empowerment and judicial reform, the State Council said in a statement.

"Today's historic step mirrors the country's commitment to empower women and promote their participation in the judicial authority," Osama Shalaby, chairman of the Egyptian State Council, said.

This historic move follows the 2022 appointment of 98 women to the State Council via transfers.

The State Council, established in 1946 and reaffirmed by the 2014 constitution, handles administrative disputes, disciplinary cases, and provides legal opinions, among other functions.
