'Cause of action for women in politics overview needed'

‘’It is therefore my ardent hope and wish that the overview adds further impetus for the next cause of action regarding participation of women in this trajectory invading this male dominated sphere, political power and authority,’’ said Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Nationality, Immigration and Gender Affairs, Dr Temba Mmusi.

He was speaking at the launch of The Situational Analysis of the State Of Women’s Participation In Political (WPP) Decision Making in Gaborone yesterday. Mmusi added that he was delighted that the launch addressed thorny issues of gender equality and mainstreaming in the political arena. He added this was an area where Gender Links Botswana puts an in-depth and highly analytical thought into the state of women participation in political decision making which even in this century seems to be male dominated.
