Forgotten – Remarkable Women Missing from History
March 8th is International Women’s Day and to mark the day our Women’s Representative Committee hosted a webinar which shined a light on the achievements of important women which have been forgotten or misattributed to men throughout history.
Unfortunately there are many examples of women who have been ‘forgotten’. This webinar highlighted 8 examples, with each committee member giving a brief overview of the achievements and life of the following women:
- Olive Morris
- Constance Markievicz
- Ada Lovelace
- Mary Fildes
- Jayaben Desai
- Patsy Mink
- Mo Mowlam
- Lillian Lindsay
