With runoff elections having concluded on Tuesday in Liberia, vexing questions on the country’s direction for justice remain at the forefront. My amazing colleague @KelseyRhude and I analyzed this situation in our debut blogpost for #justiceinconflict. @TJI_ @medicamondiale

'only nine women won legislative seats – out of the 88 seats that were available this election cycle.' I shared my thoughts with @dounardbondo as to why...

Congratulations Liberia! Political parties signed MoU on a minimum 30% gender quota for candidates listings in the 2023 general election. Important step for strengthening women’s political participation. Now focus on implementation! @AfricaSweMFA @Sida

In 2006 there was 16 percent women representation in the legislature; 13 percent in 2012; 11 percent in 2014 & 10 percent in 2021 - Women’s rights activist, Caroline Bowah Brown. Let's advocate for increased #womenpoliticalparticipation at all levels. #wppliberia #liberia2023

Caroline Bowah: Women’s representation in legislature is at a downward trend. From 16 % in 2006 to 10.7 % now. But we also know that when parties put women on their tickets more women are elected. #wppliberia #womeninpolitics

The experience from #Sweden & many other countries is that only when political parties give sufficient support for women to become active members & listen to their ideas, will politics start to become gender equal. What is your experience in #Liberia. #wppliberia #liberia2023

Workshop on Women’s Political Participation in 2023 elections just got underway. "In Liberia women make up less than 11% of the Legislature. Equal representation in nat'l decision making is required for Liberia’s emerging democracy," says Sen. Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence, WLC Chair.
