Micheline's Three Conditions
by Foley, RoseSheehy Skeffington, Micheline
€ 14.99
ISBN: 9781739474805
How was it possible for one woman, later joined by a handful of others, to ovecome a large organisation, and bring about a gender equality sea change in higher education in her country?
This is the story of how the granddaughter of Ireland's most famous suffragrate won a gender discrimination case for lack of promotion, the first such win in either Ireland or the UK; and how she then donated her €70,000 award to five other women, also passed over in that promotion round, for their High Court case.
It tells of the subsequent Micheline's Three Conditions Campaign, a four year epic struggle filled with twists and turns, to get the five women promoted. And then the final success. This is a fascinating and often humourous account which will surely inspire the next generation to take on injustice, just as Micheline Skeehy Sheffington and her formidable grandmother once did.
