Come read with us!
In September 2020 we held an online public vote to choose the 4 books we would together explore between October 2020 and May 2021. The winning books were; They are: Climate Justice by Mary Robinson, Violent Borders by Reece Jones, On Fire: The Burning Case for a Green New Deal by Naomi Klein, Hope in the Dark by Rebecca Solnit.
Here's how it will work:
1. Read the book and / or associated read and watch lists (psst: you can receive a book of your choice from the 4 winning books for donating just €4 to us a month!)
2. Join the free public event where a contributor working on the issue covered in the book will join us to explore the issue and actions that can be taken to improve the situation.
3. Take part in a development education workshop to be part of a reflective, critical space for exploration of the issue, and to connect the dots between seemingly disparate issues of global justice in order to foster a sense of interconnectedness and understanding of root causes

A group for the Irish members of Goodreads!
Every month we nominate and vote for a book which we read and discuss the following month. If you are just joining or getting a slow start don’t worry, discussions never close, although the group does move on to the next selection.
We also read an Irish book every quarter. This is usually a book by an Irish author, but it can be a book simply about Ireland too.
