MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC marked International Women’s Day with a protest outside the Central Bank this afternoon to protest against inequality, domestic violence and lack of abortion rights.

The protest was organised by Reproductive rights, against Oppression, Sexism and Austerity (ROSA), the Abortion Rights Campaign, Irish Feminist Network, Union of Students in Ireland, Action for Choice, Real-Productive Health and DCU Students’ Union.

The National Women’s Council of Ireland also organised a soapbox outside the GPO today, where members of the public could voice their point of views.
