Over the past year, much ink has been spilled on how women need to speak up and lean in — on how they need to be represented more and better in foreign policy institutions and in the media. According to the women author only 10-20% of op-eds. Another way to look at the status quo: a woman over 65 years old is less likely to be cited as an expert in the media than a boy in the 13 to 18 age group. We can do better than this. But how?
Join ¹ú²úÊÓÆµ NYC, Foreign Policy Interrupted, Media Matters for America, and Foreign Policy magazine for a solutions-based discussion on how we can meaningfully change this outdated ratio.
