Older Women and Pensions - Kerry Workshops

NWCI is inviting older women in Kerry to take part in three workshops looking at empowering women to advocate for pension reform.
You will get a better understanding of current pension policy and how it impacts on older women in Ireland. You will get a chance to find out how to make changes to improve the situation for older women and get active in bringing about change.
With the support of the National Collective of Community Based Women’s Networks in Kerry we will hold three workshops in Cahiverciveen.

  • Monday 27th March - 10am - 2pm: This meeting will be an opportunity to discuss the impact of pension inequality on older women and hear about your own experience.
  • Monday 24th April – 10am – 4pm: This meeting will provide training in how to bring about change and who makes the decisions. You will hear from other older people that have been active in calling for change.
  • Monday 22nd May – 10am – 4pm: At this meeting we will share learnings and look at the next steps. The policy team will use the experiences of the women in our lobbying work for pension equality.
