The Training for Women Network Ltd (TWN) works with other like-minded organisations working towards gender equality and improving the lives of women throughout Ireland. The programmes we deliver are in areas of high social deprivation and often with a high paramilitary presence. We help develop and empower women to take up leadership roles within their community and help them move on from poverty and coercion.
‘HERstory of History’ This hard-hitting event begins with a narration looking at 40 years of conflict in Northern Ireland followed by a dramatic monologue.
Join us for an intimate journey through Northern Ireland’s troubled past, hear the personal testimonies of women who have lived through this; those shaping its future and the impact on communities, some still controlled by paramilitaries. Hear from women from all walks of life who experienced pain and bereavement and how that shaped their lives.
This event is designed to empower women to make changes in their communities, taking power from those who would try to destroy/maintain control over them.
