Belonging - a FOMACS/ICI production

Published: Thursday, November 04, 2010

Launch of Belonging - a FOMACS/ICI production - which articulates a diversity of young voices as they express and reflect upon their everyday lives and views on the future. Belonging was conceived and produced over two weekend workshops, where photography, video and music acted as a catalyst for collective discussion about group and individual identities, friendships, the notion of community and family, race and religion. The workshops allowed participants to respond to issues of 'belonging' and 'home' and to take part in a lively conversation about emergent Irish identities and who is counted as being 'Irish' from the perspective of young people growing up in Ireland today.
