The book approaches the topic systematically, first defining key concepts and metrics, then delving into each of the core themes with comparative analyses. It addresses historical power structures and social norms that perpetuate gender inequality, while also referencing international agreements like CEDAW. Through its data-driven approach, Global Gains provides valuable insights for policymakers, activists, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of achieving true gender parity and the nuances of women in government. The book challenges complacency and promotes the need for targeted interventions to achieve more equitable outcomes.
