Ireland is missing positive engagement

Senior Landecker Fellow Mamobo Ogoro recorded a video for the Irish Times in which she discusses diversity in Ireland. According to Mamobo, while there is diversity in the country, Ireland is missing positive engagement.

“We need a lot more communities to be bridging across the differences,” Mamobo speaks to the current situation, adding that more work needs to be done especially on inclusion of minorities.
