In February a community meeting of key stakeholders from the Nenagh area met to discuss their role in challenging inappropriate language and behaviour in society.
Â
On Friday 25th March, students from Nenagh College & Nenagh CBS engaged in a 3-hour workshop with Marney O’Regan to offer their opinions on key aspects of the issues.
Â
Students engaged in workshops and discussions around which behaviours have become normalised in our society and ways to challenge such behaviour. They worked on a media campaign which will be rolled out in the coming months, with the support of the UCC media team and Professor Louise Crowley.
Â
Teachers Catherine O’Keeffe (Nenagh College) and Helen O’Connor (CBS) undertook the training offered by UCC to ensure they were aware of the resources available to schools. They also actively supported the conversation amongst their vibrant and enthusiastic students at this meeting in the Pastoral Centre.
