The event will feature a number of prominent Irish politicians and academics, as well as activists and members of the diaspora taking part from around the world.

The conference comes at a crucial time for Irish citizens at home and abroad, with the reality of Brexit now biting, and the global pandemic ongoing. The discussions will respond to the Irish government’s diaspora strategy, and the commitment to a referendum extending the franchise in presidential elections to all Irish citizens.
