Across our Pacific — from villages to national parliaments — women and gender diverse leaders already lead with courage and care. They guide families, churches, schools, workplaces, and communities. Yet too often, those voices are missing in the places where laws are made and futures are shaped.
This series is about helping change that. It’s about learning from those who have gone before, lifting up each other’s voices, and finding the courage to step into political spaces — from the village council to parliament.
Together, through two talanoa, we’ll share stories, wisdom, and practical steps for how Pacific women and gender diverse leaders can strengthen integrity, transparency, and accountability at every level.
Raising the Bar: Civil Society’s Expectations for Political Integrity in the Pacific
Our second roundtable is about hearing directly from women and gender diverse voices in Pacific civil society about what they expect from their parliamentarians when it comes to integrity, transparency, and accountability.
Together we’ll share priorities, reflect on challenges, and shape clear advocacy points that can help push for stronger, more accountable leadership across the Pacific.
