Is it time for Ireland to rethink its future? This session will explore what a ‘Second Republic’ might look like for the country—one that fully embraces its potential in the 21st century. From economic reforms to social and political reconfiguration, we'll discuss how Ireland can tackle the challenges of the modern era while building a fairer, more inclusive society. With Brexit reshaping its relationship with Europe and beyond, and ongoing domestic debates about housing, healthcare, and taxation, Ireland is at a crossroads. Join us as we envision a future where Ireland leads, innovates, and thrives in an increasingly complex global environment.
