Congratulations to fellow Irish Traveller Owen Ward, Access Centre at NUI Galway who was elected a member of NUI Galway's Údarás na hOllscoile (Governing Body of the University) for the term to 31 J ...
The society aims to work towards increasing Traveller participation in third level education, while providing a safe and welcoming space on campus. At present, just 1% of the Travelling community hold a third level qualification. With just 9% of Traveller children completing the Leaving certificate compared to 86% of the settled population.
