"Ireland's Referendum: Redefining Women's Role in the Family"

TL;DR Summary
Ireland is set to vote on two proposed amendments to its Constitution, one aimed at removing language enshrining the role of women in the home and another to broaden the definition of family. The changes reflect the country's shift towards a more secular and liberal identity, away from the values of the Roman Catholic Church that dominated society when the Constitution was ratified in 1937. The amendments coincide with International Women's Day and mark another milestone in Ireland's ongoing constitutional transformation.
