Reading text:

Campaign f or more women MPs in Turkey

A series of posters have appeared in cities across Turkey featuring well-known

women wearing false moustaches. It's part of a new campaign aimed at increasingthe number of women elected to parliament. This report from Sarah Rainsford:

There are vast posters of women with facial hair plastered all over Istanbul and other

cities. Their slogan - 'do you have to be a man to enter parliament?' There are just

twenty-four women in the Turkish National Assembly now, a mere four-point-four

percent of the total. The figure has never been much higher. The women's group

running the poster campaign says that's because Turkey is still a very patriarchal

society, a place where politics is seen as man's work and women are far less likely to

have the funds needed to run for election.

Ideally the campaigners want positive discrimination to end that - the introduction of

a legal quota for women MPs. But for this year's general election they're pressuring

party leaders, all of them men, to change the way they draw up their party lists.

Instead of putting a token handful of female candidates at the very bottom,

campaigners want women in the top slots. They're hopeful that would ensure at least

ten percent of MPs in the next parliament are women - not the full equality they're

after but a start.

Parties traditionally see women candidates as a risk, especially in the less developed

east of the country. But campaigners quote a recent poll that they say shows

opinions are changing. It suggests more than eighty percent of Turks believe

parliament would be a better place with more women there and it shows political

parties could boost their share of the vote considerably if they only took the plunge.
