  Roundtable Discussion on "Struggling for Peace: The Women of Northern Ireland"  
(Seminar/Conference)

Avila Kilmurray has a distinguished international career in areas related to social justice work. Previously she was coordinator of the Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action's Rural Action Project, a European Union Second Anti-Poverty Program initiative. In 1990 she was appointed the first Women's Officer for the Ireland Transport and General Workers' Union. Ms. Kilmurray was also active in establishing the Northern Ireland Women's Coalition. She currently sits on the board of the Global Fund for Community Foundations, which supports community building throughout the developing world.

The Community Foundation of Northern Ireland is an independent charitable grant-making organization, whose mission is to "drive social change." Ms. Kilmurray has served as the director for eighteen years and has a particular interest in community development, peacebuilding, and women's issues.

The Women in International Development (WID) program has sponsored a discussion series for the past several years, giving students and professionals an opportunity to share their research and discuss ideas of women in international development. Students, faculty, staff, and members of the community are encouraged to attend the discussions and bring their ideas and questions. For the complete discussion series schedule for Spring 2012, see:

Feel free to bring your lunch and encourage others to attend. We look forward to seeing you there!
