UALL Women in Lifelong Learning Network

What is the Women in Lifelong Learning Network?
The Women in Lifelong Learning (WiLL) Network is one of UALL’s six specialist networks, providing both a forum for discussion of issues relating to women and gender in lifelong learning and a professional network for women employed in the lifelong learning sector.  The WiLL Network has a mailing list of over 90 members, publishes a quarterly e-bulletin and runs events, open to all and sometimes jointly with other UALL networks on topics related to women and lifelong learning. If you would like to join the WiLL mailing list, please contact the Network Convenor, Kate Thomas.
