Mütter in die Politik! Wie der Einstieg in die (Kommunal-)Politik gelingt

In the organizer's words:

READING & TALK I Ulrike Helmer Verlag

With SARAH ZÖLLNER

How do women with children to look after find their way into politics? And how do they assert themselves there? How do they successfully form networks and achieve their goals in the long term? 21 mothers who are active in local, state, federal and European politics or outside party politics have their say. Among them are Katarina Barley (SPD) and Alexandra Geese (GRÜ-NE/EFA). Best-practice examples and tips form a pool from which anyone who wants to get involved in politics can draw. The non-fiction book analyzes why even today so few women, and especially mothers, succeed in entering politics - and how this can be changed.

Politics", which takes a critical look at the social position of people who take on caring responsibilities. Sarah Zöllner lives near Heidelberg with her two sons.
