Their website proves otherwise:

Key research areas include :
Contemporary feminism and gender politics in Ireland and
internationally
Women, power and public participation
Historical perspectives on women in Ireland
Literary and cultural theory
Lesbian and Queer theory and politics
Women and Adult and Further Education
Gender and global studies
WERRC has a dedicated commissioned research unit, with a fulltime
Research Coordinator. The unit seeks to ensure that a feminist
perspective is available to organisations engaged in public policy
research and analysis.
As well as drawing on the expertise of members of staff in the
Centre, the unit builds active research partnerships with other
researchers, academic centres and non-governmental organisations
through the formation of a pool of researchers and the pursuit
of collaborative research projects with both academic and non-
academic organisations. Recent areas of focus include the labour
market, gender and education, health and poverty, equality issues
and violence against women.
