Consider This: Gender Parity in Political Representation Act — Turning 30% into Law

Projek 30% began as a campaign to persuade political parties to field at least 30% women candidates by the next general election, and now it has entered a new phase. Civil society groups behind the campaign have drafted a proposed Gender Parity Bill and begun briefing MPs on how the 30% target could be mandated by law. On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks with Ayesha Sofia Faiz, Programme Officer at EMPOWER, and Anfaal Saari, Selangor State EXCO for Women Development & Social Welfare and the Deputy Chief of Angkatan Wanita AMANAH Negara.
