Where did it all begin? The campaign was officially launched by Kezia Dugdale (Lothians MSP for Scottish Labour) and Alison Johnstone (Lothians MSP for the Scottish Green Party) in September 2014 and has been founded by life long feminist campaigners. We welcome the support of individuals from across political parties and none, because championing women's social justice is everyone's responsibility.
We're not the first campaign for fair representation in Scotland. We stand on the shoulders of, and work with, formidable women who pushed the cause when a parliament in Scotland was first being considered. Our wins so far:
We have had many wins, but the campaign goes on until we have legislated candidate quotas ensuring fair representation for women. Our steering groupCan you donate £10?We work as a team of volunteers and a network across women's organisations in Scotland. All of our team generously give their time. As the campaign has grown, so has the demand. We want to be able to reach across Scotland and across the political landscape. To do that, we need you help. Can you donate to help us get to a 50/50 Scotland?
