1. The establishment of the border divided families in the area, as some family members were not allowed to cross into certain areas. This caused isolation and separation for many families in the region.
2. Since the Good Friday Agreement 15 years ago, the dissolution of physical border checkpoints has improved freedom of movement and reduced divisions between communities. Cross-community cooperation has increased through peace projects that bring different groups together.
3. For women in the area, life is generally better now than 15 years ago. There is less threat and intimidation, and relationships between communities have softened. However, some divisions still remain due to the region's proximity to Northern Ireland.
The document introduces Adrienne E. Goolsby as the new CEO of the Richmond Redevelopment and Housing Authority (RRHA).

Sex is good, healthy, natural. And yet, we managed to transform the act of making love and babies in one of the most sinful activity on the planet.
Our sex education is now mostly done through male-gaze porn.
Lingering myths about menstruation and sexuality lead to terrible consequences. And women even experience an orgasm gap!
So how do we shift the sex balance? How do we promote more sex positivity and happiness?
The article discusses the launch of a Changing Places Ireland campaign to introduce fully accessible toilet facilities for people with severe disabilities across Ireland. It notes that standard disabled toilets do not meet the needs of people who require hoists or changing benches. The campaign aims to create a website mapping existing Changing Places facilities, which have hoists and changing tables, to allow more independent access to public spaces. The lack of such facilities can limit social participation. The group hopes to work with disability organizations and businesses to increase the number of Changing Places toilets nationwide.
1. Gender discrimination is deeply rooted in many societies and traditions dating back to ancient texts like the Manu Smriti that dictate women should always be under the control of a male guardian.
2. Practices like female infanticide, child marriage, dowry deaths, and women trafficking continue today due to patriarchal social norms that undervalue women and girls.
3. Women face barriers to education and empowerment through practices like child marriage, sexual harassment, and limited rights in conservative nations.
This controversial presentation looks at the unique struggles of transitioning from boyhood to manhood while being denied the right to fulfil the masculine role.

The document summarizes the history and status of women in China. It describes how women in ancient China were expected to obey their husbands and stay home to complete household tasks, with marriage arrangements made by fathers. Today in modern China, policies have changed and women have more freedoms, including choices in marriage and education. However, issues still exist such as violence related to China's one-child policy, including forced abortions and sterilization, and an imbalance in the ratio of baby girls to boys born.
This document discusses the changes in women's roles and lives in the early 20th century. It touches on topics like marriage, divorce, contraception, abortion, family sizes, women's independence, equal voting rights, fashion, sexuality, and the influence of urbanization and mass media. Overall, it describes a significant shift where women gained more personal freedom and independence, and their roles and power in society changed.
Women in China have experienced both progress and setbacks in their rights and social status over time. Confucian teachings traditionally promoted male dominance and subservience of women. During the Tang Dynasty women had increased land rights, divorce rights, and access to education, but these gains were reduced later on. The 20th century brought new laws aimed at protecting women's rights, though cultural norms have been difficult to change and China's one-child policy has had negative effects, including sex-selective abortion and abandonment of baby girls. Today women make up a large part of the workforce but often face poor conditions, especially in rural areas. Overall women's equality under the law has advanced but true social and cultural equality remains a work in

Women in China have seen significant changes in their rights and roles over time. Historically, women were deprived of equal rights and were expected to serve men as slaves or concubines. Practices like foot binding further restricted women's mobility and suitability for marriage. In the early 20th century, women's rights advocates called for reforms, and the Nationalists and Mao banned foot binding. Today, women theoretically have equal education and marriage rights, but issues remain, such as the impacts of the one-child policy leading to sex-specific abortions and a disparity in the gender ratio, contributing to problems like increased abductions of women.
In the early 20th century, women in Western societies began rethinking their traditional roles at home and demanding greater rights and access to public life. They sought higher education, new professions, economic independence, and the right to vote. By the 1920s, some women gained suffrage and began entering male-dominated fields during World War I, though pay disparities remained. Women also had more opportunities for education, comprised an increasing share of university graduates, and adopted simpler fashions and hairstyles suited to the modern, working woman. They pursued new hobbies, activities, and social customs outside the domestic sphere as ideas of feminism and women's empowerment progressed throughout the century.
This document discusses the history of gender equality and women's rights. It covers ancient cultures where women had limited roles, the modern women's rights movement of the 1960s fighting for equal pay and reproductive rights, and the establishment of women's rights as human rights in the 19th century. In India, the document outlines that women had higher status in ancient times but it deteriorated during the medieval period under practices like child marriage and sati. Modern India has advanced women's rights through its constitution but still faces challenges of violence, lack of reproductive rights, and social issues like honor killings and dowry violence.
This document discusses common stereotypes associated with gender, age, ethnicity, disability, sexuality, social class, and regional identity. For gender, men are often stereotyped as physically fit and dominant over women, while women are seen as physically attractive but submissive. Transgender people face stereotypes of being overly focused on appearance. Young people are viewed as reckless and unemployed, while the elderly are seen as unable or inferior. Ethnic stereotypes include white people as superior, Chinese as intelligent but bad drivers, and Middle Easterners or black people as criminals or inferior. The disabled are stereotyped as incapable, while the able-bodied are superior. Homosexuals are seen as feminine or attractive, and bisexual
The document proposes a new fashion and beauty magazine called "FN". It would target 13-24 year olds primarily and 24+ secondarily. The magazine would feature celebrities on the cover wearing the latest seasonal fashions. Main articles would provide an interesting story about the cover star along with many photos. Advertisements would include both high street and designer brands. The proposed monthly budget projects a profit of £3,410 per month after costs.

This document provides an overview of chocolate, including its history, types, health benefits, popularity, and fun facts. It discusses how chocolate originated from the cacao tree in South and Central America over 1900 BC. The Aztecs and Mayans cultivated it before Europeans were introduced to it in the 16th century. There are various types of chocolate like dark, milk, white and bittersweet. While chocolate has some health risks, dark chocolate may provide benefits like reducing blood pressure and cholesterol. Chocolate is widely used in popular culture from books and films to fashion shows. The top chocolate brands globally include Ferrero Rocher, Lindt, and Cadbury.
Georgetown University Assembled Education PresentationGeneralAssembly_DC
1) The document discusses creating an "in-house innovation incubator" at Georgetown University to experiment with skills-based education and new models of experiential learning.
2) It proposes designing "skills packages", experiential learning models, and tagging skills to courses to create a "skills transcript".
3) The goal is to promote the three principal goals of a university - education, scholarship, and service - while preparing students with critical skills and maintaining the importance of in-person learning experiences.
The document describes the steps taken to create a magazine advertisement.
Step 1 involved editing the main image by selecting and adjusting the colors of different areas like the sand, water, and sky to brighten the overall image while removing color from rocks and other parts.
Step 2 was adding text using different fonts for the band name to make it stand out, adding text stroking to help the text stand out against the colors, and positioning the text to not cover the hands in the image.
Step 3 included adding star ratings and platforms where the album would be available, as these are conventions found on established artist ads and provide trusted information for people looking for an album.

The document discusses high college attrition rates, with nearly half of enrolled students dropping out before earning a degree. It notes that reasons for dropping out vary and increasing pressure is being placed on schools to help keep students in college. The document advocates for capturing more meaningful data in real-time through mobile apps to help advisors better understand student needs, feelings of belongingness, confidence, and personal issues in order to provide targeted support and reverse attrition trends. Having an "advisor in every student's pocket" through such an app is presented as a potential solution.

Skateboarding has grown significantly in popularity since 2002, with an estimated 13.5 million skaters worldwide according to a sports report. Most skaters are teenagers and men, who use skating as a way to express their individual style. Skateboarding originated from street culture and is often practiced in public spaces not traditionally intended for the sport. Skaters have developed a variety of tricks while sliding on a board with wheels, many of which involve lifting the board and spinning in the air. Famous skaters who have advanced the sport include Tony Hawk, considered one of the most skilled and versatile skateboarders in the world.
1. Women were brought together in Sligo, Ireland to discuss women's participation in community and political life.
2. They felt that having more women in decision-making roles would make a positive difference by bringing a more action-oriented and collaborative approach that focuses on solving community issues and meeting the needs of families.
3. Participants believed greater female representation in politics could help address marginalization and bring more diverse perspectives, as women tend to have a better understanding of marginalized groups and are more empathetic due to shared experiences of discrimination.
This document summarizes discussions from a roundtable on women and institutional change. Key points included:
- Having more women in decision-making roles would bring expertise from collaborating and managing families, as well as provide a feminist perspective to challenge biases.
- Education needs to teach equality from an early age and make gender roles more flexible both in schools and at home.
- While progress has been made, politics and power imbalances remain male-dominated in Ireland. More support is needed for women in leadership.
- Community education programs have empowered women but more systemic change is still needed for gender equality.
The document summarizes discussions from a workshop aimed at improving women's representation and challenging male culture. Key points included:
- Education needs to focus on teaching equality and challenging gender stereotypes from a young age.
- Parenting roles must be redefined to avoid perpetuating traditional gender roles.
- Media and social media both contribute to and can help challenge gender stereotypes.
- Improving women's political representation requires training programs and potentially penalties for sexism in politics.
- Both gender-separate and joint programs/networks for men and women were seen as having benefits for progressing gender equality.
This document summarizes discussions from a roundtable on women's safety and security. The roundtable was attended by 25 women from counties in southern Ireland. Key issues discussed included:
1) Women generally do not feel safe at home or in their communities due to threats like domestic violence and lack of community support.
2) For women to feel safer, attitudes towards women need to change, including through education, and communities need to be more supportive and inclusive.
3) Women face different threats than men, such as greater economic insecurity, physical vulnerability, responsibility of caregiving, and sexual abuse.
4) While awareness of violence against women has increased, many felt actual violence has too due to factors like increased media

Here is a summary of the key points regarding the cost of a private and domestic nature:
- Expenses must satisfy the requirements of section 8-1 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be deductible. This includes not being of a private or domestic nature.
- The private use of the upstairs area of the property for residential purposes would not qualify for any deductions, as this is considered to be of a private and domestic nature.
- However, the downstairs area has been set up for Bill's physiotherapy business, which produces assessable income. Expenses related to this area could potentially be deductible.
- Apportionment of expenses between the private upstairs area and income-producing downstairs area would need to
This summary discusses two works from different cultural traditions - the poem "High Flight" by John Gillespie Magee, Jr. and the fantasy work "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" by Mark Twain. "High Flight" is a 14-line sonnet that describes the feeling of flying high in the sky. "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" is a fantasy novel that uses time travel to depict a modern American man who is transported to medieval Britain to the court of King Arthur. Both works employ imaginative elements to creatively portray experiences outside of normal reality.

Women: Legacies of the Past
Summary of roundtable discussions

October 2014
Introduction of Overall Project
The National Women’s Council of Ireland (NWCI), the Community Foundation for Northern
Ireland and the Women’s Resource and Development Agency are partners in a Peace 3
project that aims to capture the experiences of women living through conflict and through the
subsequent period of conflict resolution and peace building.
The aim is to learn from the experience of women who have lived through these processes
and to try to identify ways in which to make a positive impact. Over two years this project will
bring women together on a cross community and a cross border basis and they will have an
opportunity to exchange learning with women from other conflict areas through the
Foundations for Peace Network.
Key issues will be highlighted in different workshops which will take place throughout Northern
Ireland and in border county areas. These are:
Violence, safety and security
Decision making and representation
Women’s rights are human rights – women and social justice
Women and the legacies of the past
Women and institutional change
The fourth theme addressed in the project is ‘Women: Legacies of the Past.’ Workshops were
held in Belfast and Clones and a final cross-border workshop will take place in Belfast. At this
event ‘Women, Legacies of the Past: A Shared Learning Workshop’ participants from the two
previous workshops will come together to pull together the various strands of the discussions,
develop recommendations and decide how best we can influence policy.
The final part of the project is aimed at placing on an international stage all that has been
learned through the discussions between women from different communities and regions.
The project will have two important outcomes:
The learning gathered will be used for the design of policy recommendations that will
be disseminated through the production of a Policy Report on Gender and
Peacebuilding which will be primarily focused on influencing institutional change in
both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
A Tool Kit on Women and Peacebuilding: Developing Practical Approaches will be
produced. This will be circulated internationally with the intention of influencing
governments and agencies responsible for providing grants and assistance to war-torn
societies.

Format
20 women from across Clones / Monaghan and the surrounding area attended a workshop to
discuss and provide their personal perspective on issues on the legacies of the past that they
are dealing with as women.
The morning began with a contextual presentation from Angela Graham from the Cavan
Resource Centre.
Facilitated discussions took place around three tables with a scribe noting the issues that were
raised. Participants were asked to focus their discussions around the following key questions:
Question 1:
How did the establishment of the border affect you as a woman in terms of
- your family
- your place in the community
and in what ways can you still feel the impacts of this?
Question 2:
What kinds of changes have you noticed in your own life, in your family life and in your place
in the community since the Good Friday Agreement 15 years ago?
Question 3:
Do you feel it is better or worse for women now, than 15 years ago? In what way?
At the end of each table discussion the women were asked to prioritise a few issues and note
these on a flipchart. The priorities from each table were then fed back for all the groups to
hear.
A short plenary session ensued.
4. 4
The following report summarises the topics discussed for each question:
Question 1:
How did the establishment of the border affect you as a woman in terms of
- your family
- your place in the community
And in what ways can you still feel the impacts of this?
The Division of Families
The location of Clones meant that when the border was established, the town was surrounded
by it on three sides. This had a profound impact on families in a number of ways. Some of the
women moved to Clones from the north with their parents during the troubles as their parents
had been on the run. They recall a lot of crossing over and back across the border.
One participant shared how sometimes her mother could cross the border but her father was
not allowed due to his status as a republican activist. The most extreme manifestation of this
was when her father was not allowed to attend her mother’s funeral. She went on to say that
she and her siblings did not understand the situation until they were in their teens but it was
the labelling of “terrorists” that they encountered in the south that “told her why they had to
move in the first place.”
Another participant talked about how her family too had moved to Clones from the north. Her
brothers who were in the British army were not allowed to travel home to Clones and she also
told about how her nephew who is currently in the British army is strongly advised by his
superiors not to travel home to Clones. The women talked about how during the troubles it
was always more problematic and worrying to care for boys. There were other participants
who have family that immigrated to Australia that have not returned to Clones since the
troubles because of being advised not to.
In this way families in this area have experienced a lot of division and isolation due to the
establishment of the border.
Divided Communities
The divisions in the community in Clones which pre-existed the troubles were deepened with
the establishment of the border. This division they said was felt more in the town communities
than in the country where people tended to feel more protected and at ease.
All of the women talked about the inconvenience of being stopped or searched at the border
checkpoints. The impact on a P1 mother is that she had to send her kids to the south. Kids
are able to adapt.
It is a vast difference to raise your kids in south than north – didn’t have to deal with the same
stuff but the southerners who visit find it shocking. Still an uneasiness going into the north –
being identified by car number plate / accent. Some women had no cars to cross the border,
so didn’t experience that.
A few participants said that if you were from the “wrong side” of the border you were
stereotyped and criminalised if you happened to be catholic. The likelihood was a lot higher
that Catholics would be stopped and searched. The women also felt that the British flag
tended to be used as a way to “intimidate” Catholics crossing the border.
5. 5
Other participants talked about there having been times when they and their families were
afraid to go out of the house due to trouble in their housing estates which were divided.
It was felt that it is really only the older generation that is fully aware of this divide and what it
means.
Q2. What are the Changes in your lives since the Good Friday Agreement?
Dissolution of the Physical Border
The participants felt that the dissolution of the physical borders around Clones had made a
significant impact on their lives. As one of the women said: “when the border was there
“Northern Ireland was like another country – isn’t anymore.” Another participant said “It is
great that it is gone and there is peace.” They talked about how the sense of threat in their
lives had lessened now that the soldiers were gone from the surrounding area and the sense
of freedom to come and go since the bridges and army posts were opened up again.
All of this equated for the women “less of a divide” on many levels including a greater sense of
openness about one’s religion. Some of the women recalled how they no longer had to
“illegally smuggle back butter, cigarettes, fruit and IP records.” They also felt that the building
of the new road to Dublin signified a new beginning for the women of the north and the south
to interact with eachother.
Cross Community Cooperation
There was a general feeling that there has been a vast improvement in cross community
cooperation and that a significant factor in this has been the peace funded community projects
that have brought alienated communities together. There has as a result been a “softening in
attitudes,” and “stronger, more certain” inter-community relationships.
The participants commented that the women’s peace projects in particular have been
incredibly beneficial to them and that the opportunity to dialogue with women they normally
wouldn’t have contact with has allowed them to learn things they never would have known.
This in turn has allowed them to broaden their horizons in ways that have profoundly affected
their daily lives.
Some of the women also talked about the fact that people are quite proactive in trying to “build
bridges,” and that there is huge interest in projects such as Peacelink which brings kids from
the north and south together through sport.
The element of secrecy that was always such a strong current in border town life during the
troubles is no longer an issue – there is a lot more communication and no more “secret
societies.”’
One participant highlighted that there has been a big change in social life in Clones. For
example pubs are “generally more communal” without the segregation of earlier years.
A few of the women felt that there is still much to resolve in the north after 15 years and that
there “is still a divide.” Due to their close proximity to the north this matters to them despite the
fact that there may be already better conditions in their own small town.
Effects on Family Life
6. 6
The removal of the border checkpoints has meant that for the families of ex-prisoners, visits
back and forth are a lot easier and this has had a huge positive impact.
Participants talked about more open attitudes from the churches towards civil inter religious
marriages which have also had a very positive effect on family life.
Effects on the Local Economy
The women talked about how the local economy had utterly changed since before and after
the establishment of the border. Clones which had been a thriving town with many small local
businesses lost custom from the surrounding areas and many businesses had to close down
as a result. The women said that “Clones has gone downhill after partition,” and that it still had
not recovered. Now people tend to travel to the bigger towns to shop and more people have
the transport to do so and people from around the area tend only to come into Clones for
football matches. Some of the women felt that Clones needs to be promoted to tourists as a
beautiful historical town.
Q3. Do you think living in a border county is better or worse than 15 years ago?
Better
In general the participants felt that life has improved in the last 15 years and the positive
comments by far outweighed the comments that outlined where further development was
needed.
Cross Community Exchange
The women said that despite the fact that there are still underlying issues to be resolved within
the community, the active presence of cross community organisations has dissolved a lot of
the tension that had been there previously.
There are in general more community groups and projects which has facilitated greater
understanding between religions and ideologies. Participants also talked about the de-
stigmatisation of cross community marriage.
There was also positive feedback about the fact that there are now direct routes to go to
church and other weekly activities now that the border checkpoints are gone.
In more recent years learning about different cultures and traditions through community
projects has expanded further through the presence of migrant cultures and this was also
praised by the women.
Domestic Violence
It was felt that there has been an improvement in women’s attitude to domestic violence and
also in the services that are now available.
Women are now more willing to speak with confidence and courage about their experiences of
domestic violence and are more willing to leave abusive husbands or partners.
7. 7
There is a greater awareness about the prevalence of domestic violence and a greater
availability of counselling for it.
Women are Finding their Voice
Many participants spoke in a very positive way in how women have progressed in using their
own voices and “having their say.”
This they felt was due to the fact that women are no longer willing to be dominated to the
same degree as 15 years ago. There are also more opportunities for a woman working
outside the home which has equipped women with greater independence and confidence.
Some participants commented that it is the increased solidarity that now exists between
women that is contributing so positively to women finding their voice. This solidarity has been
deepened through the networking and dialoguing opportunities provided by local women’s
groups.
Schools and youth culture, the women pointed out, are also proactive in encouraging young
women to have a voice and to be treated more equally.
Although a few of the older women talked about how much pressure it is for young women to
work in addition to caring for children and the home, other participants pointed out that women
want to be out working so that they can enjoy greater independence and a higher standard of
life.
Worse
A few of the women felt that while things had improved for women in terms of work and
financial independence that in the end this simply constituted “double-duty” as many young
women continue to take full responsibility for caring for the home and their children.
In addition to this, due to the recession women are accepting jobs far from home and face
long commutes each day. In some cases they take full responsibility for their house mortgage
if their partner is out of work.
It was felt that although women are now more inclined to speak out that it is often met with
hostility. One of the participants also highlighted the fact that there are no women’s refuges in
Monaghan and Cavan and that the nearest one now is in Enniskillen.
