#GaisceGold
🙌 We loved welcoming this brilliant group of young people to Gaisce HQ at the weekend, to kick off the Roots and Shoots: Gaisce Gold Residential.
It marked the beginning of 2️⃣ weekends of Global Citizenship, team bonding and workshops, supporting participants as they work towards their Gaisce Gold Award.
💡Roots and Shoots: A Higher Education Global Citizenship Initiative is a collaboration between Gaisce – The President’s Award and Student Volunteer Ireland, funded by Irish Aid.
👏 We could not deliver this without our wonderful partners: STAND.ie, Trócaire, Financial Justice Ireland, and the ESD Academy at ATU who support participants to explore the Sustainable Development Goals, social activism, and the local and global impact of volunteering.
😊 As you can see, it was a highly immersive, thought-provoking, and collaborative weekend. Well done to all! 🎉
