👏Thrilled to be here in Newry this morning for the #AllIslandWomensForum - we’re celebrating the spirit of the #GoodFridayAgreement & making space for diversity 👀 You can watch along over on our Facebook

Our first speaker Eileen Weir remembers that the Good Friday Agreement was impossible to understand without a university degree, so people really relied on their politicians, and on grassroots women’s organisations, to help them understand before voting 🗳 #GFA25

Eileen Weir Eileen Chan-Hu 陳愛蓮 Nicole Parkinson-Kelly Eilish Rooney of Transitional Justice Institute would love to see the Good Friday Agreement (Eileen’s easy-read version!) on school curricula, North and South. 📖She reads us some of the Agreement, noting the protections for diversity which are built in. They are alive, she says, but not well.
