A crack in the glass ceiling
The fallout from Samoa’s 2021 election has triggered a broader discussion about women in politics, writes Dr Kerryn Baker.
In April, Fiame Naomi Mata’afa caused the political equivalent of an earthquake for Samoa. The long-serving and immensely popular politician had taken on a political powerhouse in the country’s national election – and won. Her former party, the Human Rights Protection Party (HRPP), had been in power almost continuously for 40 years. Its leader, Tuila’epa Sa’ilele Malielegaoi, had been prime minister since 1998.
By leading her fledgling opposition FAST party to victory, Fiame set another milestone. She was poised to become the country’s first woman prime minister.
