Malaysia is one of the few countries in the world that has attained parity across genders at the tertiary education level. In Malaysia, women make up about 52% of tertiary education enrolment, compared to 48% men, meaning women slightly outnumber men at this level.
So, why, despite this, does women’s participation in politics remain incredibly low? According to the folks behind KRYSS Network, one of the key reasons is due to gendered disinformation. They are running a Campaign is called Countering Gendered Disinformation with the support of EMPOWER.
In this episode, we discuss what exactly gendered disinformation is, its impact and how we can deal with it and encourage more women to participate in politics. We speak to Ayesha Sofia Faiz from EMPOWER and Abdullah Nishad from the KRYSS Network.
