One event that might be of interest is
What has been the pandemic’s impact on female equality?
Saturday, 21 November
Time: 5:30pm to 6:30pm
Have women been unfairly impacted by the pandemic? If so, is a lack of political representation to blame?
Chaired by Gillian Martin MSP, Member of the Equalities and Human Rights Committee, this panel includes:
Dr Angela O’Hagan, Deputy Director of the WiSE Centre for Economic Justice, Convenor of the Scottish Women’s Budget Group
Hannah Stevens, Director of The Parliament Project
Talat Yaqoob, Chair of Women 50:50 and member of National Advisory Council on Women and Girls
David Devenney, Director, Fathers Network
The event is run in partnership with The Parliament Project.
There's also another topic that might be worth attending, if only to remind the panel about women's rights.
