November 2026 Friday’s e-links: Female Power

Every once in a while, (and sometimes each day), I listen to a great podcast, enjoy an article, or see a good video that I want to share with you. These are my e-links.

I just discovered the Women’s Power Index. A data aggregate from the Council on Foreign Relations, the Index tells us where women wield political power. Always, when we find a new menu of data on a topic that interests us, it is fun to wander through it all. For this Index, browsers can start with the scores of 193 countries. Then, a closer look reveals where women have at least 50% representation in the different levels of government. Only the beginning, next, through graphs and narrative, we could look at recent progress and setbacks. And of course, they suggest how female leaders differ from their male counterparts. Do take a look.
