We are a 100% Non-Partisan organisation and have trained over 3,000 women since 2012.
Since 2012 women across Ireland have participated in our INSPIRE Campaign schools. This was the start or continuation of a journey for many of today’s local councillors, TDs, Senators and MEPs.
Women for Election Master Classes deliver practical sessions that empower you with a “toolbox” that will aid and support you on your political journey.
INSPIRE Campaign School graduates speak about their experience of training with Women for Election.
Right now, only…
of TD’s in Ireland are women
of Councillors in Ireland are women
It’s time for #MoreWomen in politics!
From quotas to candidate selection, to family-friendly politics, Women for Election are leading change.
996 participants at 23 events in 2020
525 women living in 22 different Irish counties trained with us in 2020
The Countess Markievicz Circle is a core group of donors who have come together to support Women for Election to achieve our vision of an Ireland with balanced participation of women and men in political life.
Play your part in supporting a female candidate to get elected. Become a campaign manager, help out with canvassing or use your social media, organisational or fundraising skills to help get your chosen female candidate elected.
Long-term, sustained funding is essential for Women for Election to deliver on our commitment to political transformation and successfully inspire and equip women to consider politics as a career option.
