The SHE Project is a collaboration between the Women’s Manifesto Project (a Longford Women’s Link programme) and 50:50 North West, organisations with strong links at grassroots level. A unique project, it is ‘ploughing new furrows’ in developing an innovative rural strategy to ensure women from our rural constituencies gain their rightful place on our councils and in Dáil Eireann.
In this week's episode, Colette Bennett chats with Dr. Michelle Maher on all things female participation, the role of women in local government and why she's so passionate about this project (and she really, really is!).
