We enjoyed a fascinating morning here in DALC today as we examined the findings of our recent ‘Leadership for Active Citizenship’ course. Led by the amazing Maura White from CAN, using a Dialogue approach, the participants shared their experiences of the course

Yes, this is such a turbo-macho response when so many local activists are already crying out for support for community-led initiatives @CANAction87
This is an ill-advised, facile stunt driven by a puerile obsession with PR, it plays to a loud law & order lobby enabled by the media while evading the more difficult but less eye-catching work of harm reduction, crime prevention and policing with communities…

True @BelvoBYC this video shows how relationship building and dialogue between young people, youth services and the Gardaí in the NEIC is making a difference through steady work between the parties. Proud to be part of this change project.
Check out the clip below, you might see some familiar faces. Groundbreaking work this and steadily building over the years. If red tops moved away from dramatisation and showcased this and other work the @NEIC_Dublin do people from the outside might get a accurate read of it 🤝
