Description
For our ninth podcast episode, we were thrilled to have Beth Doherty, Caillum Hedderman and Saoirse Exton join us to discuss student activism. The three of them are on the ISSU (Irish Secondary Student’s Union) committee, as well other environmental groups, including Fridays for Future and Saoirse also being a Climate Ambassador who won an Outstanding Achievement award from us last year. Holding a space on this podcast to give a voice to the youth movement, the students discuss many topics, including Fridays For Future, climate justice, intersectionality, lockdown, going outside comfort zones, driving engagement, public awareness, eco-anxiety, role models, heroes, hope and much more! A great source of hope, through all their actions and a very engaging podcast, hearing from this group of well-seasoned speakers!
