Spotlight on women's post conflict role
Hundreds of women from across Derry are expected to attend a community relations conference in the city examining their role in a post conflict society.
Derry City Council's new chief executive, Valerie Watts and Felicity Huston, Northern Ireland's General Commissioner for Income Tax will be among the guest speakers at the conference to be held in the City Hotel on January 28.
Funded by the Community Relations Unit through the District Council’s Community Relations Programme, the now annual community relations event will this year have as its theme “Women in a Post Conflict Society."
Speaking ahead of the event, the Council’s Women’s Officer, Joanna Boyd, said the conference was a good opportunity for women from various religious, social and cultural backgrounds to come together to discuss issues relating to the post conflict years.
As well as having guest speakers, the conference will include a number of workshops and a questions and answers session, followed by refreshments.
Anyone wanting to attend or find out more about the conference should contact the Council directly on 028 7136 5151
