1/ The voice that whispers, ‘Am I good enough?’ or, ‘Do I deserve to be here?’ or, ‘What if people hate me?’ - the voice that can ultimately lead to a state of paralysis. Yet, whether singer, artist, or otherwise, these are the demons we all must face.

You can read more on the project below, but here's key information:

• PROJECT TITLE | NIGHTWORK_FOOTPRINT: A Synthesis of Contemporary CapitalismS Across Nightshift Cities
• START / END DATE | September 2025 / August 2029

The graphics and project identity will be in the hands of a truly talented artist, and her creative, flourishing fantastic, unique style - none other than Andreea Moise.

From September, the hard work begins to lead a small team of two (a PhD student and myself), backed by one mentor and eight academic advisors / collaborators.

With this amazing award, I will continue the work I have started over a decade ago (not that I knew then where I'd be heading or arriving here now), to create alongside others a socially-just model of nightwork.

My project is among the 36 projects to be funded by @researchirsland.ie Pathway Programme. Funding will be covering a four-year period and it support researchers like me in their early-career phase to establish their independent careers.

Let's commemorate those workers.
