Calls grow for a woman to lead the United Nations

Original: As the UN ponders its next secretary-general, many say it's well past time for a woman to lead

As the United Nations weighs who will succeed António Guterres as secretary-general, growing voices inside and outside the organization argue it is well past time for a woman to take the job. The UN has never had a female leader in its 80-year history, and the selection process has reignited debate over that record. Candidates and member states are under pressure to make the choice a historic one.

Why now: The UN's selection of its next secretary-general has revived long-standing debate about never having had a woman in the role.
