14/4/2013

17 Comments

 
Equality Activists Wanted!  Equality Budgeting Campaign, in association with the Irish Feminist Network.  Do you want to do something about the inequalities present in Ireland today? Are you a woman between the ages of eighteen to thirty? If so, register as an equality activist today.  You will receive:  •	Workshops on practical activism skills such as P.R., political lobbying, social media and direct action. •	Seminars and information on equality budgeting. •	Your transport costs covered. •	A chance to meet other like-minded young women. •	An opportunity to make a real difference!  What is equality budgeting?  Equality Budgeting is a practical measure which ensures that all tax increases and cuts are equality-proofed before they are implemented. This means that any government budget decisions must not unfairly impact any marginalised group in society.  How do I sign up?  There are forty spaces available for Equality Activists. Email irishfeministnetwork.org  Our First Event.  Our first event will be a seminar on approaches to equality in policy-making. It will be held in the National Women’s Council of Ireland offices on Parnell Square, on Saturday April twentieth, from eleven to four thirty.  To find out more, please visit www.equalitybudgeting.ie or www.irishfeministnetwork.org .

Would you like to screen Miss Representation?

7/3/2012

Miss Representation is a documentary about the media’s negative portrayal of women and girls. Now is your chance to bring this important film to your school / group / club.

Though Miss Representation is American, we feel that its message and the questions it raises are important in an Irish context. The IFN has hosted two sold-out screenings, and we know that more people want to see the film. 


The Irish Feminist Network is proud to announce that (with some legal constraints) we can now offer to screen the film at your school / group / club for a limited time only.

If you would like to screen Miss Representation, the requirements are:
  • $250 screening fee (roughly €190), payable in advance to Miss Representation via in the IFN
  • An IFN Coordinator must attend all screenings, so please be flexible with the  date / time / location of your screening and contact us early.
  • The IFN coordinator can host a workshop if requested – discretionary fee.
While we’d love to lend this DVD out to anyone interested in watching it, the IFN is contractually obliged to look after it and return it to the US once we’re finished screening it. It’s for this reason that an IFN Coordinator must attend all screenings. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

We hope you’ll consider screening this film. Please contact us at irishfeministnetwork@gmail.com to arrange a screening.
