51% Coalition

Women on Boards · Advocacy

Rating: 4.4 / 5

The 51% Coalition is an advocacy network pushing for at least 51% women's representation on the boards of Jamaican public bodies and private companies — a reflection of the country's actual demographic split. Its signature output is the Women on Boards scorecard, which tracks progress against gender balance on state entities. The coalition also runs board-ready training, policy advocacy, and media campaigns. Backed by the Bureau of Gender Affairs, UN Women, and senior Jamaican corporate figures.
