SHINE Festival is an inspirational three-day online event organised by The Shona Project.
Kicking off on International Women's Day, the festival will bring together women from all over Ireland!
The programme features over 80 speakers including Vicky Phelan, Laura Whitmore and Hazel Chu.
They'll cover a host of topics ranging from mental health, career progression and diversity to the arts, sports and social issues.
And get ready for a treasure hunt, goodies and vouchers, and some 3-minute mind hacks to get you up and moving!
The SHINE Festival is completely free of charge and talks can be accessed from anywhere!
Attendees will join the 100 schools and 20,000 female students already registered to attend the event.

The Shona Project
The Shona Project strives to create a support system for all the teenage girls of Ireland
Speaking on the festival, Tammy Darcy, Founder and CEO of The Shona Project, said:
Like everyone else, the young women we work with have been hugely affected by Covid, they are feeling more stressed, isolated and anxious than ever before. SHINE allows us to provide them with the inspiration they need right now, and invites them to become part of an empowering movement of women who are strong, resilient and positive.
