- Gender equality
- Women's and / or girls' rights
- Women's participation
Type:RecommendationSession:20th session, November 2014Status:AcceptedContents:Adopt measures enabling more women's political representation.ExplanationWomen's right to vote and to stand as a candidate is exercised on the basis of gender equality. In order to address the low presence of women in institutions, the last electoral reform (Qualified Law no. 1 of 5 August 2008) provides that each party list for the general elections in the country shall not include more than two thirds of candidates of the same gender (the so-called obligatory quotas for women")ImplementationNational Report:
Para 40) San Marino has a very advanced legislation and provides for guarantees regarding the participation of women in politics and elected offices. Under Article 15 of Law no. 6/1996 and subsequent amendments, the electoral lists for the election of the Great and General Council (Parliament) shall not include more than two thirds of candidates of the same gender (the so-called "gender quotas"). In addition, the same electoral legislation provides that in the event of a tie between two candidates, the first criterion on which to make the choice is gender, and in case of a different gender, the woman is the winner. In this process of emancipation, worth noting is that, to date, 25% of the Parliament’s members are women.
Para 41) In the six-month mandate from 1 April to 1 October 2017, for the first time two women were elected Captains Regent (Heads of State).
Para 42) Currently, the Government has only one female member out of seven ministers, but recently (2008-2012 legislature) two key ministries (Foreign Affairs and Internal Affairs) were run by two women for the entire legislature.
Para 43) The full participation of women in policy and decision-making processes is monitored by the aforementioned Commission and Authority for Equal Opportunities.
Para 44) The Commission and the Authority often promote initiatives to raise public awareness of the difficulties encountered by women in their daily lives: to mention just one of these initiatives, on 8 March 2019, on the occasion of Women's Day, the initiative "In our shoes" was organised, with a particular focus on national activities and legislation to combat discrimination against women in both the labour and the political world.
Para 45) In 2017, San Marino joined the Group of Friends for Gender Equality, with the aim of promoting women's leadership as a prerequisite for promoting international peace and development.
UN Compilation:
Para 25) The HR Committee … noted that the representation of women in political life remained weak, despite measures taken to remedy the situation, such as the adoption of Qualified Law No. 1/2008, which provided that each party list of candidates running for general elections should not include more than two thirds of candidates of the same gender. In that respect, the Committee noted with concern that only 10 of the 60 members of the Great and General Council and one of the nine Secretaries of State were women.
Stakeholders Summary:
Para 41) OSCE/ODIHR NAM interlocutors expressed dissatisfaction with the lowering of the number of preferential votes, noting that this could decrease the chances for women to be elected, …
Para 67) OSCE/ODIHR observed that while women were well represented in the election administration, they were underrepresented in elected office. The impact of the gender quota on candidate lists can be limited due to the system of preferential voting.
Para 68) CHR of CoE observed that the representation of women in politics remains very weak, despite some legislative measures to bolster it.

- Discrimination based on gender identity
Type:RecommendationSession:34th Session, November 2019Status:Unclear ResponseContents:Take the necessary measures to strengthen the legal framework against discrimination, in particular by passing a comprehensive legislation covering all grounds of discrimination, including gender identity.
ExplanationNoted …. it is considered that there is no need to specifically include gender identity between the grounds for discrimination, since Article 4 of the “Declaration on the Citizens’ Rights and Fundamental Principles of San Marino Constitutional Order” already provides for a comprehensive prohibition of unequal treatment or discrimination with the wording “All shall be equal before the law, without any distinction based on [...] personal status”.

Type:RecommendationSession:7th session, February 2010Status:RejectedContents:To create and adopt all legislative and administrative measures necessary to ensure that all families, including those based on non-conventional family models, are treated equally under the law, particularly with regard to issues of residency and inheritance.ExplanationThe special role played by the family has always been recognised in the Republic of San Marino, since it is a fundamental and highly valuable unit of society. According to the family law presently in force, family is based on marriage, which is defined as the "union between a man and a woman, based on the free and responsible choice and on the moral and legal equality of both partners" (Art. 1 of Law no. 49 of 26 April 1986). The San Marino Welfare State provides for several social benefits and assistance measures to support also non-conventional family models. However, there are still differences between traditional family models based on marriage and other models. Therefore, the Republic of San Marino is not in a position to accept Recommendations 28/29/30.ImplementationNational Report:
