Irrepressible swimmer, laugher and 80s music dancer. I can find a gender dimension in any situation. Advisor at Value for Women but tweets are my own.

@catherinecheney Thank you so much for highlighting this issue, Catherine. We so often extrapolate men's experiences as universal and the consequences are dire. And thank you to @CCriadoPerez Caroline Criado Perez for authoring the bible that has so inspired my thinking.

“So much of the research that our projects & our programs are built upon is informed by male respondents speaking on behalf of humanity” -@BolisMara. I’m on the lookout for orgs that are disrupting the “male unless otherwise indicated” default #WomensDay devex.com/news/to-move-p…

@HarvardCID @devex Thank you @HarvardCID and @devex for helping to spread the word. There is a serious lack of data collected on women’s unique experiences. And the ramifications range from inconvenient to tragic.

@BolisMara @AMarshallMD Absolutely 🙌. I advocate motherhood should be paid employment in more countries. Africans are structured to see care roles as an easy flex for women and this should not be so. It is a full-time job and women with additional jobs, need to find a healthy balance. #womenbizlaw

I just can't. Sara Saeed Khurram CEO of @SehatKahani just talked about how women in Pakistan need a chaperone to go to the hospital. My heart weeps. #womenbizlaw

#womenbizlaw Imagine living in a country where you can get fired from your job for getting pregnant? Or, not being able to travel outside of your home without your husband's permission? These are two of the many unthinkable barriers that women face around the world.

126 countries have laws that prevent women from performing certain jobs that are protected for men. This set of indicators are basically a landscape of inequalities. #womenbizlaw amazing work is bringing these barriers to light

Yes, @catherinecheney It is true! What we don't know does hurt us. Thank you to @washingtonpost for raising this crucial issue!
Catherine Cheney@catherinecheney

This quote (from @washingtonpost podcast) demonstrates why a lack of data (on the link between extreme weather & domestic violence) means a lack of action. From talk “How the Development Community Fails with a ‘Male Unless Otherwise Indicated’ Approach.” washingtonpost.com/podcasts/post-…
