Digital Repository of Ireland to launch pilot collections for the Archiving Reproductive Health project on International Women’s Day 2022.

Archiving Reproductive Health (ARH) is a project funded by the Wellcome Trust and carried out by the DRI to preserve and publish digital materials relating to campaigns for reproductive justice in Ireland, especially during the campaign to repeal the Eighth Amendment in 2018. Working with key stakeholders including the Abortion Rights Campaign, Together for Yes, Terminations for Medical Reasons, Coalition to Repeal the Eighth, and many others, ARH has gathered and preserved a selection of digital objects and research data that tells part of the story of this historic campaign.

These collections will be launched online on International Women’s Day, 8 March 2022, at 12:00. All are welcome to attend and registration is free.

The event will be recorded. DRI operates in compliance with GDPR. Please see our Privacy Statement for more information about our use of your data.
