This inspired German delegates at the 1910 International Socialist Women's Conference to propose "a special Women's Day" be organized annually, albeit with no set date. The following year saw the first demonstrations and commemorations of International Women's Day across Europe. The rest is history, but the struggle for gender equality is ongoing.

If you’re an author, teacher, researcher, creative or simply feel that there is a lot more to words than straightforward messages, then this workshop is for you! Come explore the language mechanisms behind word formation and learn how to express yourself creatively through building your own, exclusive and unique words that anyone will understand. Learn about the fascinating field of etymology; how the seeds of words travel through time and different languages, creating strings of meaning that reveal how we think and see the world.
