Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio

News and topical issue. The show is dedicated to the International Women's Day, which we have observed only a few days ago, and to various issues highlighting the role of women in society. The show is a rerun of a special 1 January programme, so if you have not caught it, look forward to us discussing the 100 years of voting rights for women in Czechoslovakia. We will also look back at the 150th anniversary of the establishment of Živena, the first and also longest running women’s organisation in Slovakia. Then speak about how to present great women from Slovak history to younger audiences and also delve into the more problematic issues, such as the ever high ratio of women who have experienced violence.
