Snippet:
In the latest Global Gender Gap Index published by the World Economic Forum, Israel was ranked 104th out of 148 countries in the category of political empowerment. This category examines the extent of women’s representation within government and parliament, and the low ranking reflects a troubling reality: Only 16% of government ministers are women, and only 24% of Knesset members are women.
