Journalist Dr Elaine Byrne Delivers Seminar Series to Third Country Nationals

22 Mar 2012

Dr Elaine Byrne, lecturer, journalist and political analyst will deliver ''History of Ireland, a Beginners Guide to Society, Culture and Politics' on Wednesday, 21st March 2012 RUA RED, South Dublin Arts Centre, Tallaght, Dublin 24.
Dr Byrne will deliver the workshop in South County Dublin with the aim of actively engaging third country nationals to participate local authority structures as a means to furthering their opportunities for economic, social, civic and political participation.

The pilot is one of a series of actions in a three year plan 'Promoting Civic Participation of Third Country Nationals' under which the four Dublin authorities ( Dublin City Council, Fingal County Council, Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council & South Dublin County Council) will assist in enabling third country nationals to establish a foothold in and integrate with Irish society. By end of 2013 it is hoped that many authorities nationwide will emulate this project to facilitate local integration.
