Dr Rainbow Murray was interviewed for a major Brazilian daily on the topic of women world leaders in 2016. She argued that while 2016 has not been a good year for female world leaders, it is not all bad news - for example, Britain gained a female leader in Theresa May, while Angela Merkel has declared that she will run for a fourth term. She also argues that while sexism has undoubtedly contributed to the difficulties that women world leaders have faced, 2016 has been a difficult year for leaders of both sexes, and one reason why more women have struggled is simply because there are more women in power than there used to be.PDF available on requestDr Murray also wrote a piece in The Times about gender quotas in the boardroom.
