Linda Tarr-Whelan (Distinguished Senior Fellow of Demos USA, former Ambassador to the UN Commission on the Status of Women)
Professor Sarah Childs (Professor of Politics and Gender)
Further speakers to be announced.
Chair:
Matt Korris (Research Fellow, Parliament and Government Programme, Hansard Society)
This Democracy Forum discusses how many women it takes to make a difference in politics, business and society. Is it the 30% tipping point advocated by women's leadership expert and former US presidential adviser Linda Tarr-Whelan in her new book, 'Women Lead The Way'? Or should we focus on true equality at 50/50 parity? Or is real change dependent on a confluence of lots of other political and economic factors that we need to focus on? The panel of speakers will give their views and then there will be a full discussion including the audience and the panel.
