According to the official WPSP website, WPSP is an
innovative initiative to advance women to positions of influence in governments
and civic organisations worldwide, and was founded by Clinton in partnership
with the US Department of State and the Seven Sister Colleges of Barnard
College, Bryn Mawr College, Mount Holyoke College, Smith College and Wellesley
College.

Shabana said, "You and I know that women leaders can
change the world. When women have a seat at the table, they lend their own
unique perspectives to policy decisions that impact their daily lives and the
lives of their communities. We know the world needs women leaders. Now it is
time for action. I am honoured to be nominated as Global Leader Ambassador of
Women in Public Service Project.The Project’s goal of “50 by 50” is an
important mission that can only be achieved if all of us step up to enable and
empower more women to lead. Representation is more than numbers alone: in order
to reach true gender equality, we must also take into account where women are
present or absent in decision-making. This is why the Women in Public Service
Project’s work building the data and evidence base for women’s leadership is so
critical. The numbers show us where we are today, and how we can get to the
ultimate goal of gender parity in policy and political leadership around the
world. I commend the Women in Public Service Project for innovating the global
effort toward gender parity and revealing new paths to achieving this
goal."

Shabana Azmi.
