Is Wonder Woman a suitable UN ambassador?

Woman's Hour

Available for over a year

The recent decision to make Wonder Woman the UN honorary ambassador for the Empowerment of Women and Girls has created an internal backlash, just a short time after the appointment of yet another man to the Secretary General post. Jenni Murray is joined by ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ UN and New York correspondent Nick Bryant and former Chief Advisor on Peace and Security at UN Women, Professor Anne Marie Goetz, to discuss whether the decision reflects the organisation’s deeper disconnect with gender.
