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 begins considering its next secretary-general, growing calls argue it is well past time for a woman to hold the post. The UN has never had a female leader in its 80-year history, and observers say the upcoming selection is a chance to change that. Campaigns and commentators are urging member states to put forward women candidates for the role.
Why now: The UN is beginning the process of selecting its next secretary-general, prompting debate over whether a woman should finally lead the organisation.
