Thank you, Malcolm! We really appreciated your valuable contribution, and for taking the time to listen to and participate in all the discussions throughout the day.

I really enjoyed participating in this important conversation on gaps in biodiversity research hosted by @aicbrn.bsky.social

Timely too as we embark on the great adventure of a National Nature Restoration Plan. Míle buíochas.

What a pleasure to coordinate & participate in such important discussions today with @aicbrn.bsky.social on how we can collectively work towards building a #biodiversity rich island, by working together as researchers, research professionals, and policy makers.

Ready to kick the day off !

Some great responses from our panel to the question of how we can best support human rights defenders. Panelists noted the role of collaboration, training, the media, but also, importantly, respecting human rights defenders' own agency. Now to audience Q&A #DCUClimate2025
