One of GQUAL\u2019s objectives is to spread information about the\nelection process for international courts and monitoring organizations. In\ndoing so, the campaign is hoping to generate awareness about the lack of\nwomen\u2019s representation in these spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through the Gqual Jobs Board, we monitor the composition of these international organizations, and data is later published under the hashtag #PSAForParity or #AvisoPorLaParidad on our social media, so that more women will know which positions are open in order to run for them. The six following elections took place in 2019:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the results of these elections are analyzed carefully, it\u2019s\nclear that out of the 31 elected officials, 14 were women, making them 45.1% of\nthe total, and the 17 men who were elected 54.8%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n GQUAL recognizes growth in these results, and we celebrate much of\nit; for example, that the Inter-American Commission for Human Rights will be\nled primarily by women for the first time (4 women and 1 man). With all this in\nmind, we continue to aspire to call to attention the parity inequity evident in\nthe election and nomination process of women for international\norganizations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n #ChangeThePicture #PSForParity<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of GQUAL\u2019s objectives is to spread information about the election process for international courts…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4320,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5,39,38,40,41],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4319"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4319"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4319\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4321,"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4319\/revisions\/4321"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4319"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4319"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gqualcampaign.org\/old\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4319"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}} |
