Great opportunity for secondary school students with Irish!
A Coiste Ghaeilge will be facilitated at the Connacht-Ulster Session of the European Youth Parliament.
The committee will discuss the protection of minority languages in Europe.

How can the European Union call for human rights abroad when it can't even protect people inside its borders?

Media, education, Covid
People who are less likely to follow news coverage about Covid-19 are more likely to be vaccine hesitant, a study suggests.

A fairly comprehensive list of recommendations from the Citizens' Assembly on Gender Equality here.
These could be useful when discussing gender and patriarchy, particularly in Ireland.

Brilliant explanation of the Seanad 😂
Topic 2:
PolSoc students have to ask themselves: should the Seanad be abolished, reformed or kept the same?
Is the Seanad necessary in today’s Ireland?
Is it undemocratic?

Dia dhaoibh a chairde, agus tá súil againn go bhfuil sibh ag baint taitnimh as Seachtain na Gaeilge i mbliain seo!
Chun comhrá a thosú leis an bpolaitíocht:
Cad ba chóir don rialtas a dhéanamh chun Gaeilge a chur chun cinn?
Nó b'fhéidir gur cuma leat fúithi?
Inis dúinn faoi!

KT: Noam Chomsky, and 'Manufacturing Consent'
Is this the further entwining of media and the first 2 'filters of mass media', profit and advertisement?
Could this help continue the perpetuation of 'common-enemies', an ever popular tactic often used to garner clicks?

Topic 5 HR in Ireland
CERD recommended in 2019 that DP should be phased out and said that SO did not adequately protect the rights of international protectant applicants
Is this the right move forward?
