This Zoom meeting is a trial engagement which forms part of a wider project funded by the European Union via the Structural Reform Support Programme and in cooperation with the European Commission's DG Structural Reform Support to develop a model of local community engagement to support education policymaking in Ireland. Several experimental engagement events have taken place under this project, most recently in Laois and Kerry. This meeting is an opportunity to hear the views of a wider group of people in Ireland, to see if meeting participants have the same experience as those in Laois and Kerry. Feedback from recent events will be shared and meeting participants will be invited to provide additional insight. The meeting will be hosted by Chris Chapman from Burren College of Art, and evaluated by the Centre for Effective Services for the purposes of informing the wider project. |
