Abstract
This report discusses feminist and gender geographies in
Ireland. We first focus on the ways in which gender constructs Irish geographies, updating numbers of women in
academic positions across Ireland. This shows that women
are increasingly in secure positions, but remain under-represented in more senior positions. We then turn to
research. We discuss how femininities and women, and
masculinities and men, have been addressed in Irish geographies. The focus on femininities and women is crucial
given recent strides towards gender and reproductive justice. We then briefly summarise sexualities work. The report
concludes by arguing that Ireland not only has vibrant gender/feminist geographical scholarship, it also has significant
potential for emerging research and developing new theorisations and research agendas.
