Programme Key The festival activities are divided into three streams - INFORM, EQUIP and INSPIRE. Icons in these colours relate to the three strands. What you need to know about some of the big issues – from climate change to female genital mutilation, these workshops and talks inform you about what you need to know. Get skilled up and discover new ways to use your voice: blogging, film, public speaking and craftivism are all included in these workshops. Opportunities to hear from women at the top of their game and explore the history of people raising their voices. Visit Parliament, the V&A, the Feminist Library and a bespoke tour of inspiring women at the National Portrait Gallery.
