Women of Honour

The international #MilitaryMeToo campaign shone a light on a culture of bullying, misogyny and sexual violence within defence forces around the globe. Emerging to tell their stories online, often anonymously, the women involved describe sexual abuse, harassment and discrimination, typically at the hands of male superiors. In this ground-breaking documentary special, Women of Honour, Katie Hannon meets former female members of the Irish Defence Forces and discovers soldiers and sailors, some with decades of service, who want their stories to be heard for the first time, their abuse acknowledged, redress, and reform of Óglaigh na hÉireann.
