Description:

The threat of nuclear war, the next extinction level event, climate change and economic enslavement, all point to the unsustainability of our current trajectory. With all of humanity's advances, why can't we achieve peace and prosperity for all? The underlying cause of our failure might be gender inequity: women are our most underutilized natural resource. Past societies which overcame war and poverty were governed similarly to ours, with one difference-- the existence of a fourth branch, consisting of post-menopausal women only. Following this historical precedent, how can we restore women's voice in government? And, can we do it in time?
