@RositaSweetman @cathmartingreen @DeptCultureIRL We have some of those locations marked but not all! The Map is always evolving. Many of the initial sites came from the #WomenofDublin crowdsourcing campaign in 2015/16. We're always accepting new sites for inclusion.

There are thousands of bridges, streets and monuments in Ireland named after men, with almost none named after the women who shaped our history. Let's bring some new suggestions to the table! #DublinAirport
