Platform 51's response to the GEO: women in Government
Platform 51's response to the GEO: women in Government
Many women struggle to be heard, or lack the confidence to speak up. Many feel they are not well represented in public and political life.
The Government Equalities Office (GEO) are consulting on how best to engage with women and the organisations who work with them. In our response we have stressed the importance of ensuring that a broad range of women's views are heard, including the voices of the most marginalised and disadvantaged women, and we set out the important role that women's organisations play in this.
