Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade
Overseas Development Issues: Discussion with Centre for Global Development and GOAL
3:10 pm
Professor Patrick Fitzpatrick:
We may not have mentioned a couple of points. Public outreach is a very important aspect of our work. We have a global challenges lecture series. Robert Gallo was one of the lecturers. Mary Robinson spoke on climate justice. More recently, we had Myles Wickstead who was part of the Tony Blair government on the Gleneagles Agreement and also Catherine Mowanga who is the Kenyan ambassador. We have very close links with the ambassadors in Ireland from programme countries and also from non-programme countries such as Kenya. We held an afternoon seminar with Mary Robinson and with researchers from different fields.
