To this end, countries seek to strengthen women's participation in power structure and political decision-making in order to move towards political development. The Islamic Republic of Iran is no exception to this and to date, many measures have been taken to strengthen women's participation in the political arena, especially in the ministry. However, since the founding of the Islamic Republic, the number of women ministers has always been one; Therefore, the question is why the number of women ministers in the system of the Islamic Republic of Iran is limited and what are the effective factors in the occurrence of this situation?
