University of Galway is pleased to announce John Canavan as the new UNESCO Child and Family Research Centre Chair in Children, Youth, & Civic Engagement.
This role will advance research on empathy, youth participation, family support, alternative education, etc. as part of the 2025–2029 programme.
Really looking forward to attending the sold-out #NewFrontiersYouthParticipation @unesco-cfrc.bsky.social conference in June, presenting on #PANELS*.
Will be great to catch up with @lauralundy.bsky.social @joshharsant.bsky.social & others.

Excited to be joining this conference in June - to present my #PhD research and findings, and some reflections on implications for practice!
Hope to see (some of) you there! 👋
