As a passionate advocate for diversity and inclusion, and whilst wearing several hats representing CWO South East, Conservative Women's Organisation - UK, Milton Keynes Conservative Women's Organisation Milton Keynes Conservatives, and @Conservatives I take pride in my contribution to the crucial cross-party discussion on how we can bring greater diversity at all levels of the political sphere. This is an area that holds immense significance in the representation of ethnic minorities in parliament and will be an ongoing conversation.
It is important to promote the voices and perspectives of women of colour in our public life and I firmly believe that our society thrives when we have a parliament that reflects the rich tapestry of its people.
In my recent contribution to the interview by @CentenaryAction which is now available in their blog, "Stand Up, Speak Up, and Make Your Mark: Why We Need More Voices from Women of Colour in Our Public Life," I delve into the importance of representation and the impact it has on shaping policies and decision-making processes. I invite you to read the article here: ‘Stand up, speak up and make your mark’ Why we need more voices from women of colour in our public life - Centenary Action Group
It is imperative that we all get together to champion diversity and equality, breaking down barriers and opening doors for women of colour to make their mark in our political landscape. By standing up and speaking up, we can create a more inclusive future that values and embraces the unique contributions of every individual.
We are a hugely diverse nation and this is an important journey towards a more representative and equitable society. Do share your thoughts and join the journey. 50:50 Parliament
