As a follow up to our successful #FemGen general election campaign, the event ‘Celebrate the Changemakers’ will look at women’s experiences on the campaign trail, ongoing barriers to women getting elected, and priorities in relation to women’s equality for the next Oireachtas and Government.

We will be asking representatives from the main political parties to take part. 

So far, the following speakers have been confirmed:

- Claire Kerrane, Sinn Fein

- Jennifer Carroll Mac Neill, Fine Gael

The event will be chaired by Katie Hannon, Broadcast Journalist.

The event will be livestreamed on Facebook.
