Half of Us Are Female, But Only Ten of Our Leaders Are

By Irene de Vette, UN Millennium Campaign      Wednesday August 29, 2007

Interesting graph of Good Magazine, in association with the designers of OPEN, NY: While half of the world’s population is female, only 10 percent of our leaders are. Hence the blurry face. This design is part of Transparency, a series of fresh graphical representations of data that surrounds us. It certainly gives out the message that it’s time to focus on Goal 3 of the Millennium Development Goals (Promote gender equality and empower women)!
