Mala Htun's research is foundational to policy/advocacy work on global women's political participation; I've cited her in think tank reports, op-eds, congressional briefings, and I know lots of colleagues in the gender policy world do too.

Thank you Alice MacDonald for taking CARE's call to the heart of Westminster. We need to support women leaders in conflict & crisis. Setting a target focused on gender equality spend within the UK aid budget is a logical first step in getting women & girls the support they need #SupportWomenLeaders
