A cross-community initiative has begun in Nenagh, Co Tipperary to challenge unacceptable behaviour towards women and young girls in social settings and online.
Businesses, schools, sports clubs and workplaces across the town and the surrounding area have all signed up for the “Choose Respect” campaign.
The campaign is also reaching out to young people in schools in the town who are taking part in the UCC-led “Bystander Intervention’ campaign which is run across 50 schools in Ireland. Students from Nenagh College have taken part in the programme as part of the wider respect campaign in the town.

Students in the Technology Department at Nenagh College were aiding with the assembly, and also showcasing their design skills using the newly added 3D printer. 3D printing is an additive manufacturing process that creates a physical object from a digital design.
Students will now benefit from bringing their design ideas to life though the use of CAD, with the added bonus of being able to prototype with models.Pictured are some of our third year students designing and manufacturing a required part for their Junior Certificate Engineering project.
