Finland has a coalition government led by five women. In 2020 the BBC had world-first exclusive access behind-the-scenes to explore how the coalition works in practice.

Another chance to see an up-close look at the coalition government in Finland led by five women - four of them only in their 30s. Their Prime Minister, Sanna Marin, was the youngest world leader when she was elected. Finland's coalition government has been praised for their quick and decisive action on the Coronavirus pandemic, but a coalition can also mean compromise. In 2020, the BBC had world-first exclusive access behind-the-scenes to explore how the coalition works in practice, how representative it is of Finland's society, and what impact the age and gender of the government's main players has had on its policies and effectiveness.
