Great to be at @SDublinChamber South Dublin County Business Awards representing @an_cosan. We’re nominated for not 1 but 2 prestigious awards: Best Not-For-Profit Organisation and Innovation in Business. We’re in it to win it, but then – admittedly - I’m very biased!

With Adelaide Nic Chárthaigh; Marcela Gregg and Ashling Johnston….

On #HumanRightsDay, marking the 10th anniversary of @ihrec.bsky.social! As a former commissioner, it was great to connect w current & past commissioners. IHREC’s vital work in promoting human rights & equality empowers communities & drives real change. A compelling address by new C.C. Liam Herrick.
