Women In Research Ireland is a group for women and other under-represented groups in research and academia in Ireland.
We aim to organise events that are accessible and inclusive:
We will provide physical access information about the venue on the event registration page. If you have additional access requirements (such as Irish Sign Language interpretation), please let us know at womeninresearchireland@gmail.com in advance of the event you wish to attend and we will try to facilitate these to the best of our ability.
All are welcome to our events and we do not tolerate discrimination based on sexuality, ethnic/cultural background, ability, socio-economic status, or any other characteristic. We strive to ensure that our events are always inclusive friendly spaces.
If you have any suggestions or feedback, or if you would like to get involved in future events (to help organise, or to volunteer as speaker) just get in touch! We would love to hear from you.
