Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

The Covid Inquiry's presumption that the vaccines were safe and effective is like the Post Office Inquiry presuming that Horizon was reliable, say Ben Kingsley and Molly Kingsley. It compromises the entire enterprise.

The nurses’ work-to-rule and their threat to escalate the action next week has been met with an outraged onslaught by Mary Harney and Bertie Ahern. The sight of a group of workers standing up and demanding their rights has become so unusual that it seems as if the government cannot believe the temerity of the nurses in doing just that.

international / gender and sexuality / other press Tuesday April 03, 2007 16:10 by Houzan Mahmoud
In Iraq amid chaos, sectarianism, a rise in tribalism, and the enslavement of women, one can think of a constitution which is being written only as a document - or some how an agreement between the political players in Iraq.

The constitution is only a clear indication of power sharing, pleasing each party's desire to practice their policies, and practices outlined by law.

When reading the constitution, from the preambles to the end, I thought it is just written in a patriarchal, religious and tribal language, and this is the political mixture of the parties we have in power in the so called “parliament”. It does not represent anything to do with Iraqi people, and their aspiration for freedom and equality.

If you were a feminist activist in Iran today, you would be under the constant threat of arrest for a simple action: asking for equal rights. On Sunday, March 4, 34 women’s rights activists were arrested for silently gathering outside Tehran’s Revolutionary Court to protest the prosecution of four women on trial that morning. The four women’s rights leaders are facing multiple charges including “acting against national security” for organizing a protest for women’s equality in Tehran in 2006. read full story / add a comment

The Twelfth Convergence Sustainable Living Festival focuses on the issues of Climate Change and Peak Oil as catalysts of sustainable development. What can we and our communities do to respond to these challenges? Over the years Convergence has provided an important platform for the sharing of best practice, networking and the furthering of sustainable development in Ireland.
