Women in Action: stories of resilience, resistance, and hope

An International Women’s Day celebration

Celebrate the resilience and activism of the women of Liverpool and beyond, with performance and discussion led by artists and activists who have been involved in Collective Encounters’ Women in Action programme over the past two years.
