Having more women in parliament will help ensure a more gender sensitive and equal society, says Engender Consultancy founder and managing director Omna Sreeni-Ong.
“The pandemic has had a devastating social economic effect, disproportionately impacting women and girls and derailing hard won days in gender equality. As such, parliamentarians, including women leaders and activists at the highest level of government, have a significant role in ensuring a gender responsive recovery to build back better and make our society more inclusive and equal,” says Omna.
