Where are women organising? Dublin Arts and Human Rights Festival
Tuesday, October 15, 2024
National Women's Council of Ireland, in partnership with the Dublin Arts & Human Rights festival, has created this online event of women leading in the trade union movement, anti racist and reproductive rights activism, and international solidarity campaigning.
Women have always been at the forefront of organising, campaigning and agitating for change across many crucial issues. Their style, determination and flexibility has often been overlooked. This online discussion will capture how and where women are leading in the current struggles for women’s rights.
Speakers include:
- Vivienne Glanville, Women’s Collective Ireland
- Amy Moran, East Wall Here For All
- Louise O’Hara, Forsá
- Maria Elena Costa Sa, Irish Network Against Racism
- Aoife McCrory, Mothers Against Genocide
- Marta Lempart, Polish Women’s Strike
This event is part of 6th annual Dublin Arts & Human Rights Festival Programme: In Solidarity: An International Celebration of Arts and Human Rights. The festival features exciting and innovative events that promote equality, human rights and diversity through the arts, taking place in a variety of locations in person and online. The aim of the festival is to showcase and highlight the extraordinary work of human rights defenders in Ireland and around the world, past and present, and the role of the arts and artists in promoting human rights today.
