THE Central Library Letterkenny will host a free ‘EU Unfiltered’ Roundtable workshop in partnership with European Movement Ireland on Thursday, March 26, at 6.30 pm.
Chris Mitchell, Senior Engagement Officer at European Movement Ireland, said:
“As part of European Movement Ireland’s public engagement programme this year, a series of roundtables are being organised across the country to gauge public opinion on key EU topics, including the EU–Mercosur agreement.
“These sessions are designed to map public sentiment while ensuring the conversation reflects a wide range of perspectives.”
The first session, taking place at Europe Direct Letterkenny, will bring participants together in an informal setting to discuss the EU-Mercosur agreement.
In addition to exploring the agreement itself, the discussion will address how misinformation and disinformation shape public understanding of EU developments and how citizens can navigate online narratives around Mercosur.
Insights from participants will help highlight the changes people want from policymakers and ways to improve communication around EU decisions in the future.
