Outline
This module is a six week online module, with the last session (session 6) in person. The module uses creative, participatory and convivial teaching and learning practices in order to:

- Discuss the social, legal, penal and justice frameworks and contexts to women’s stories, women’s lives’.
- Discuss the intersecting oppressions, challenges, barriers and possibilities to accessing justice for women.
- The final 2 hour session will be workshop based and in person at UCC and will include 'mapping the future' by asking 'what can be done about justice for women?'
