The Women’s Regional Consortium’s latest research paper Women, Skills & Barriers to Work will be launched on Thursday 5th December @10am in Shankill Shared Women’s Centre, Belfast.
The research contains the results of 10 focus group sessions and questionnaire engagement with 60 women on the reasons they are currently out of work, the barriers they face getting into work, the jobs they would most like to do and their thoughts on what is considered a good job. The paper includes the experiences of women across Northern Ireland and also reflects the views of rural women and women from minority ethnic communities.
The launch event will include a summary of the research paper, a talk from Betty Carlisle MBE, Chief Executive Officer of Shankill Shared Women’s Centre about the value of community education and some personal experiences from women. We would love to see you there, you can register to attend the launch event here:
