  • End gender segregation in Irish schools
    Dear Minister Foley, The time for gender segregation in schools has now passed. We are calling on you to end gender segregation in Irish schools and to allow all children and teenagers to be educated free from any perceived constraints of their gender. Many citizens of Ireland believe that it is no longer appropriate to educate children in separate boys' and girls' schools. Young people should be forming friendships with their peers across genders, so that an understanding can be formed while they are young that there is no difference in their intellect, ambitions, or interests. If we continue to educate boys and girls separately, we are causing grave damage to how they relate to each other socially. We may be inadvertently causing young men to regard women as inferior to them and perpetuating a gender divide that is causing so much damage in Irish society. A 2011 study called The Pseudoscience of Single-Sex Schooling states, "There is no well-designed research showing that single-sex education improves students' academic performance, but there is evidence that sex segregation increases gender stereotyping and legitimizes institutional sexism." Particularly in light of the continuing rise of gender-based violence, we ask that you form a plan to amalgamate boys' and girls' schools nationwide to effectively demonstrate that all Irish children deserve to be educated and to grow up as equals in society.

  • Allow off-grid, low impact housing in Ireland
    We are asking our government to support rural regeneration by introducing a scheme that allows people to live sustainably by building low-impact homes in the countryside. The One Planet Development scheme in Wales is a good model to base this on. At the moment in Ireland people are not permitted to build homes on agricultural land, but now we ask that the government permits planning for low-impact homes to the many people who are waking up to the climate crisis and feel compelled to work with nature rather than against it. There is a drive to plant trees, to regenerate the soil and promote biodiversity, to grow healthy organic food, to treat animals with respect and to create significantly less waste. The Dept of Communications, Climate Action and Environment and local planning offices need to recognise this as a valid and valuable form of rural development that needs specific planning guidelines and government support. What we are asking for is not difficult; it's just different, and requires our leaders to show pioneering spirit and to think outside the box.
