About Woman’s Wales
Looking as much to the future as it does to the past, this fascinating collection of essays questions whether the Welsh Government has delivered on its promise to build a ‘feminist government’ for Wales and poses the question, what has devolution really meant for women in Wales?

This collection brings together leading voices from female writers, artists, commentators and academics to reflect on how devolution has affected them and altered our political and social landscapes. Here, a series of creative and personal responses explore the true impact of devolution on the lives of women living and working in Wales, from politics, to culture, to education, to healthcare and maternity.
