Concern Connect
We are excited to launch Concern’s brand-new youth network – Concern Connect. This is for anyone who is aged between 18-25 and who lives on the Island of Ireland. This network is open to both people who participated in Concern activities in school (like the Debates or TY Academy) or anyone with an interest but hasn’t engaged with us previously.
Join our network today to develop skills for global citizenship, contribute to the work of Concern in your local community and join a network of people who are interested in global development, human rights and equality.
What does the programme offer?
Be part of a network of people across the Island of Ireland who are interested in international development, social justice, and human rights
Volunteer and support schools in your local community by adjudicating primary and secondary debates
Attend dedicated network events to learn more about Concern’s work and to meet other network members
Volunteer at Concern events
Receive the Concern campaign newsletter which features opportunities to act on global justice issues and campaign actions

How do I sign up:

Tell us:
- Your name and the county you are from
- Why you are interested in joining the network
