'Resilient Women: Thriving in their own Time'

A lecture by the Network for the Study of Resilient Women (Anna Devlin, Rachel Killeen, Joan Kavanagh and Morgan Wait) as part of the Modern and Contemporary Irish History Seminar Series.

A group of early career researchers from the Arts & Humanities at Trinity College Dublin came together in 2024 to form the Network for the Study of Resilient Women. We had each encountered individual women archivally who had exercised resilience in the face of extreme emotional, physical,
social, or political trauma and decided to advance their personal narratives. Collaboratively, the Network examines women’s resilience-building strategies while seeking to understand the skillset and attributes pivotal to their resilience, as well as their application, implications, and perceptions. https://resilientwomenie.wordpress.com/about/
