WOMEN’S VOICES IN LEADERSHIP
Women’s leadership in government is critical for achieving gender equality. However, according to UN Women, it will take another 130 years to reach gender equality in the highest positions of power. While there has been significant advancement in women’s political participation over the years and women are running for office in record numbers, women are still underrepresented as heads of state, members of cabinets, or members of legislatures around the world. Yet when women are in leadership, positive change happens - from working across party lines to enacting policies that promote education and health to promoting stability. And when more women are represented at the highest levels of power, other women are inspired to run for office and follow their lead.
