Supporting More Women for Local Election in Offaly Programme
The Programme for Government “Our Shared Future“, highlights the need for greater diversity and gender equality in local government. The “Supporting More Women for Local Election in Offaly” Programme aims to encourage the participation of women in the 2024 Local Elections and to improve the level of female representation on Offaly County Council and in political activity in Offaly in the years ahead. Offaly County Council acknowledges the funding received form the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage to encourage participation in this key area.
Offaly County Council has partnered with Women for Election to deliver the Supporting More Women for Local Election in Offaly Programme. The Programme raises a greater awareness of the need for gender equality and provides supports and training programmes to engage and encourage women in all their diversity from across the county to consider getting involved in politics and run for the 2024 Local Elections.
As part of a general awareness campaign aimed at promoting and encouraging increased participation of women and diversity in the 2024 local elections a video has been prepared and can be viewed here: Supporting More Women for Election Video
