Published: Tuesday, July 03, 2018

NWCI is delighted to welcome two new group members FIT (Fasttrack into Information Technology) and GOWN Gynaecology - expanding our membership in the areas of STEM and reproductive health. 

FIT are the national coordinators of Ireland’s new tech apprenticeships which offer both on and off the job learning over two years in some of the country’s top tech companies. They wish to boost this by building awareness of what dual-education can offer. Read more about FIT in our blog here. 

GOWN is an organisation comprised of female consultants in Obstetrics and Gynaecology who work in Ireland and are dedicated to womens' health. All of the members of the organisation advocate locally, nationally and internationally for improvements in women's health and are widely regarded as the experts in this area. A sub-group advocates on both the positive aspects of Irish maternity care (aiming to create a balance in the debate on maternity care) as well as areas needing improvement (such as anatomy scans for all women irrespective of location).GOWN were key supporters of Together For Yes.  Find them @gownireland
