Diversity, equal power, equal voice - excellent speakers & organisation of discussion with civil society groups. Looking forward to follow up actions #Diverse5050
Equal power, equal voice discussion getting started with civil society. Important partnership initiated by key diversity organisations talking about practical actions to be taken to share power & improve diversity in Wales #Diverse5050
It was a privilege to anchor the #WENCafe organised by WENWales on #diverse5050 #genderequity #quota
I'm backing the #Diverse5050 campaign to make sure that politics reflects the diversity of Wales.
There's a huge amount to be done by all parties in Wales to make sure politics and civic life is meaningfully accessible and inclusive.

This is my call for all political parties in Wales.
Not just women in winnable seats but a diverse group of women
