"Michelle Bachelet, a two-time president of Chile and ex-UN high commissioner for human rights, is the winner of our informal survey on which woman should be the next United Nations secretary-general, starting in the five-year term on Jan. 1, 2027. Following Bachelet is Mia Mottley, prime minister of Barbados.

Third place was snagged by María Fernanda Espinosa Garcés, a former president of the UN General Assembly and an ex-foreign minister of Ecuador. Amina Mohammed, UN deputy secretary-general and a onetime environment minister for Nigeria, came in fourth.

  1. Yes Absolutely, about time after 80 years of UN existence. See below for the very apt statement of Ambassador Frazier of Malta:
    "MEN WANT TO END THE WAR; BUT WOMEN WANT TO MAKE PEACE; THERE IS A DIFFERENCE"...

    1. See below another quote:
      “After nearly 80 years, the male monopoly of the UN’s highest office must end,” Marissa Conway, chief executive of UNA-UK, wrote in an email to PassBlue. “It’s time for member states to walk the gender equality talk and appoint a woman Secretary-General. States must take this opportunity to help restore faith in the UN and demonstrate that diverse and inclusive leadership is vital to achieving a more equal, sustainable, and peaceful world.”
