Action Coalition Feminist Movements & Leadership: Commitment to Generation Equality
Literature Item
Author Information:
Abstract:
Women Political Leaders (WPL) is making an ambitious Commitment to Generation Equality to advance the participation, leadership, and decisionmaking power of women within political structures in order to accelerate legislative and societal transformation. This Commitment is devised to drive transformative change and underpin the work of the Action Coalition on Feminist Movements and Leadership, which WPL is proud to co-lead. Specifically, over the next five years: WPL commits to mobilising and resourcing women political leaders and decision-makers in as many as 50 countries, to drive tangible legislative and societal transformation toward Generation Equality objectives. This will be undertaken through dedicated political and parliamentary engagement, network-building, national convenings of women political leaders, and other high-level public policy fora. In parallel, WPL will work on increasing the number and influence of women in political office by catalysing the participation, leadership, and decision-making power of women, and by encouraging and supporting girls and young women to seek and succeed in leadership roles, through both mentorship programmes and inter-linked national global political networks. WPL will implement a robust strategy of advocacy and communications at national and global levels to heighten the visibility of women political leaders and their Commitments made as part of Generation Equality
