WOMEN'S VOICES: A celebration. This year the Oxford IWF runs from 4-19 March, with the theme of 'women's voices'. As usual there is an extensive programme and a rich variety of offerings. Brochures are available in public libraries. Here I only have room to tell you a little about the 2 festival contributions from the Network of Oxford Women for Justice and Peace, both of them open to all (including men!).
