Gardening really is like magic; it brings people together, builds confidence and reconnects us with nature.

We fully support the call by #CommunityGardens Ireland for more allotments. Every community deserves a space to grow, learn and thrive.

Young people call for climate education that goes beyond individual action | University of Essex Young people are increasingly frustrated by the mismatch between the actions they are encouraged to take to tackle the climate crisis and those with the power to drive change.

At GAP, we believe climate action is not about an information deficit alone; it’s about powerlessness and hopelessness.

Real change happens when people move from individual action to collective action — and from there to system change.

TU Dublin Green Week is an annual celebration of innovation and partnerships for environmental action and sustainability education. This year it takes place between 2-6 March. Check out the full schedule: www.tudublin.ie/explore/abou...

​Spot on from Alex Whyatt in today’s Irish Times. To navigate uncertainty, we must move beyond passive learning and prioritise student dialogue and agency.
