This year marks Mexico’s 60th anniversary of women’s suffrage, and though the country has made progress in passing reforms to increase women’s political participation, women are still not well-represented in decision-making bodies.

Mexico has a 60/40 quota that requires that 40 percent of the candidates political parties designate to run for parliament have to be women. It also requires that parties spend 2 percent of the funds they get from the federal government on women’s leadership training. But women often face bias, both at the polls and within their parties.
