The article analyses the peculiarities of the observance of the principle of gender equality during local elections in Ukraine. The authors noted the international legal regulation of the principle of gender equality, the peculiarities of the regulation of this issue in the electoral legislation, and showed the basis on which local elections in Ukraine take place. Based on the analysis of local elections in Ukraine, the peculiarities of observing the principle of gender equality in electoral practice are shown. A comparative analysis of the features of the application of gender quoting during local elections in 2015 and 2020 and their impact on the level of gender representation in local government bodies in Ukraine was carried out. The authors come to the conclusion that the legislative regulation of gender equality in elections has its place, but it should be supplemented by the formation of a high level of electoral culture of voters, for which gender equality during elections should become the norm of social and political life.
