Join Una Walsh and the women of South Armagh for an evening of conversations in celebration of International Women’s Day.
Everyone Welcome.
International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.
International Women’s Day (IWD) has occurred for well over a century, with the first March 8 IWD gathering supported by over a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland. Prior to this the Socialist Party of America, United Kingdom’s Suffragists and Suffragettes, and further groups campaigned for women equality. Today, IWD belongs to all groups collectively everywhere.
IWD is not country, group or organisation specific. Make IWD your day! – everyday!

Now you understand
Just why my head’s not bowed. I don’t shout or jump about Or have to talk real loud. When you see me passing, It ought to make you proud I say, It’s in the click of my heels, The bend of my hair, The palm of my hand, The need for my care. ‘Cause I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal That’s me. Maya Angelou

At me the children warm their hands;
I am their light of love alive, Without me cold the heartstone stands, Nor could the precious children thrive Katharine Tynan
