[close] OUR SHARED SHELF IS CURRENTLY DORMANT AND NOT MANAGED BY EMMA AND HER TEAM. Dear Readers, As part of my work with UN Women, I have started reading as many books and essays about equality as I can get my hands on. There is so much amazing stuff out there! Funny, inspiring, sad, thought-provoking, empowering! I’ve been discovering so much that, at times, I’ve felt like my head was about to explode… I decided to start a Feminist book club, as I want to share what I’m learning and hear your thoughts too. The plan is to select and read a book every month, then discuss the work during the month’s last week (to give everyone time to read it!). I will post some questions/quotes to get things started, but I would love for this to grow into an open discussion with and between you all. Whenever possible I hope to have the author, or another prominent voice on the subject, join the conversation. If you fancy it, please join up and participate. Everyone is welcome. I would be honoured! Emma x"

Every month we pick a book to do with a social issue we want to learn more about 📚 2. Throughout the month, we'll discuss on here and on our twitter (@thetriageblog) 🗣 3. We'll post some questions to get the discussions started 🖋 4. At the end of the month, we'll summarise our thoughts over on our blog 👩🏽‍💻 If this sounds like something you'd enjoy, please join in!
