This step will begin in July 2019.

The September 7th event is hosted by the Scottish Parliament’s Deputy Presiding Officer, Linda Fabiani. Linda will welcome 400 women into the Parliament chamber, where the Scotland’s Women Stand event will focus entirely on women in politics and democracy. Women from all over Scotland will come together, and we are committed to being fully inclusive of women from all backgrounds and making the event fully accessible. Sign up and contact us about any inclusion measures we can make to welcome you to the event.
