The role of private sector companies in bringing more women onto boards will come under the spotlight tonight when Minister in the Presidency responsible for Women, Ms Susan Shabangu addresses captains of industry from Southern Africa and oversees at the inaugural 30% Club Southern Africa Members Dinner .

30% Club is an international group of chairpersons, CEOs and senior partners of private sector organisations committed to bringing more women onto boards because they believe it is good for the overall effectiveness of the boardroom and therefore good for business. Already over 200 senior business leaders of global companies such as Anglo American, Old Mutual, Boomberg, Goldman Sachs, Coca Cola, Rolls Royce etc. have joined the club.

The topic of women in decision-making positions is one of the 12 thematic areas South Africa will report on at the 59th Session of the United Nations Commission of the Status of Women to be held in New York on 09 to 20 March 2015. The meeting marks the 20 year review of progress countries have made in implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action and country positions on a way forward.
