Women in Decision-Making Positions

Over the past ten years, women's numerical resence in positions of power and decision-making has received increased attention. As growing numbers of women are standing for election into public decision-making positions, this has heightened the interest on ways and strategies to translate women's presence into "critical actions" and influence. 

Looking at the fate of women in decision making positions over the next 5 years in a passionate debate are Anna Abraham, Dr Hamidah Marican and Zainah Anwar.
