About Úna Gan a Gúna
We are an Irish, feminist collective dedicated to ensuring that the memories, experiences, and lives of Irish women are documented and preserved. We believe in capturing the breadth of Irish women’s experiences, from saint to sinner, student to sage, home-maker to office worker. Ireland’s history has traditionally focused on the lives of men, we are determined to make it richer and fuller by including women’s stories. Whether you’re near or far from home, your story is part of the history of Ireland and we would love to record it.
