Great piece of research on marginalised women's experiences of accessing healthcare in Ireland. There's a clear need for better awareness of gender-sensitivity and unconscious bias among health professionals

Since 1996, we have recorded and highlighted the violent deaths of women in Ireland with the ultimate aim of this work being to remember stolen lives, prevent further loss of life by increasing safety for women. Today we will #RememberStolenLives by sharing each name of woman.

Great article highlighting the importance of collecting centralised, comprehensive data about gender-based violence. It’s deeply frustrating that the government still isn’t getting basic, fundamental things like this right irishtimes.com/news/social-af…

This is a great initiative from Women’s Aid. It’s really welcome to see more and more employers considering how they can support workers subjected to domestic violence

Fascinating discussion with ARINS Project researchers this evening at Queen’s University Belfast on planning for the possibility of a United Ireland and the role of deliberative forums. It’s brilliant to see increasingly nuanced discussions about the implications of Irish unity

For today’s Irish Times, I’ve written about how the shock value of the Dáil speaking rights row will quickly fade and how opposition parties could turn their united approach to issues with a greater impact on voters like housing and disability services irishtimes.com/opinion/2025/0…
