  • Summary

  • 2024 was the year Americans chose a convicted felon as their next president, Afghanistan banned women from speaking or singing in public, and the slaughter of innocent women and children continued in Gaza.


    In Ireland, a record number of female candidates stood in November’s general election, but only seven additional women were elected to the next Dáil.


    A brave young woman called Natasha O’Brien, used her voice to condemn the leniency of her attacker’s suspended sentence, while a jury in a civil court found Conor McGregor guilty of raping Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel in 2018.


    Irish boxer Kellie Harrington brought home gold from the Paris Olympics, Taylor Swift finally returned to Ireland, and we bade farewell to some exceptional Irish women, including Nell McCafferty and Enda O’Brien.


    To discuss some of these pivotal moments from the year and their impact on women in Ireland and around the world, Kathy Sheridan is joined by journalists Niamh Towey and Alison O’Connor.
