Originally started by Greta Thunberg in 2018 when she sat outside the Swedish Parliament on school days holding a sign reading “school strike for climate”, students the world over have decided to become activists rather than wait in vain for the older generation to do something.

Most recently, on September 20, Dublin saw a school climate strike in which thousands of people showed up to make the government listen and to recognise that things needed to change and that young people were going to make sure they did. Photographer Babs Daly was on hand to capture events.

Review
Time After Time
To Kill a Time by Stanlee Keefe is an arresting novel which encapsulates what it was to be a gay man growing up in the 1980’s, having to navigate the subtleties of the Dublin gay scene with all its cladestine grittiness and shaded secrecy.

Direct Provision has been overwhelmingly recognised as a system that strips asylum seekers of their dignity, presenting a new set of problems for vulnerable people already fleeing persecution.

Chris O’Donnell speaks to a young LGBT+ woman who entered the system at the age of 13

But as times have progressed, Frankie Smith asks why there aren’t more alcohol- free spaces available for LGBT+ youth

Ahead of the publication of the study’s findings, Stephen Moloney speaks with those researching, and working at the frontline of the issue
