Cork’s aspiring activists are invited to learn campaign skills at a free residential bootcamp

By Yay Cork October 13, 2023October 13, 2023

Are you determined to make a difference?

 An Irish public relations agency is offering 20 people the chance to learn campaign skills from leading activists and communications professionals at a free residential boot camp in Dublin in January 2024.

The Alice Academy for Activists is open for applications for people from across Ireland aged 18 and over, from all walks of life, who are in the early stages of their progressive activism.

Participants will stay at a Dublin city-centre hotel and, over three days, they will learn about campaigning, with guest inputs from some of Ireland’s best-known activists, journalists, and politicians.

“If you are passionate about achieving positive social change, and would you like to make Ireland – and the world – a better place, then the Alice Academy for Activists is for you,” said Martina Quinn, Founder and MD of Alice.

“We’re eight years in business now, and – over those eight years – we’ve been privileged to work with leading organisations across Ireland’s public and charity sectors. It’s our pleasure to start giving back with the Alice Academy for Activists.”

Further information, including the application guidelines and entry form, is available at alicepr.com.  Applications are open until Friday, November 3rd.
