"I fully support the 'What Women Want from the Next Irish Government' by the National Women's Council. As I am an independent candidate standing in the Seanad Éireann election, NUI continuency, I am particularly interested in NWC's call for much greater participation by women in the decision-making process. DID YOU KNOW THAT IS 30 YEARS SINCE A WOMAN WAS ELECTED to the Seanad by NUI graduates? Surely it is time for a change? Please see how much I support the National Women's Council equality issues by visiting my web: www.valerie.bresnihan.ie. In the very near future I will be building particular connections with NWC. If you are interested to hear about how I would like to informally promote the work of NWC please email me: valerie.bresnihan@ireland.com. My web also has a list of NUI colleges should you be interested in the idea of NUI graduates bringing a woman back into the Senate!Dr Valerie Bresnihan."
The 2007 Election Manifesto, "What Women Want from the Next Irish Government," which was launched in the National Library on March 7th, sets out key demands as identified by our membership throughout the country in a broad ranging consultation.
The 2007 Election Manifesto is available for download on the NWCI website:
http://www.nwci.ie/publications/published_reports/what_women_want_from_the_next_irish_government_nwci_election_2007_manifesto
We hope that the Manifesto will be used widely to inform the debate on women’s equality in the lead up to the election. We have provided additional back up information in the form of a ‘Manifesto Rationale’, which we hope will stimulate further discussion and reflection.
The rationale for the 2007 Election manifesto is now available online at our website:
