What does it mean for women to truly participate in politics? Is having more women in positions of power enough to create better governance?
In this episode of She Talks Peace, Dr. Amina Rasul-Bernardo speaks with Dr. Socorro Reyes, a longtime advocate for women’s political participation and democratic governance, about the gap between representation and real influence. They discuss political dynasties, violence against women in politics, corruption as a threat to peace and security, and the ways weak institutions and divided societies undermine meaningful participation. The conversation also looks at how citizens, educators, and the next generation can help rebuild trust, accountability, and democratic institutions.
