Description | This study marks a milestone in UNESCO's project on 'Women Higher Education and Development' which promotes the participation of women both in higher education itself and also in the wider arena of sustainable social development. The ultimate purpose is to ensure the implementation of the aims and objectives of the Beijing Platform of Action, adopted at the 4th World Conference on Women in 1994. This document defined an agenda for women in the 3rd millennium which is based on human rights and reaffirms their rich potential as full partners in social development. Women graduates constitute a significant group in society because their level of education ensures their empowerment in a changing world. Thus, it is logical that they should be much more present in the leadership of higher education systems and institutions, in their chosen careers and in all areas of civil society. This paper is an examination of why there are so few women in senior administrative positions in Latin American universities. |
