This event is part of the RDS Foundation Festival - Finding Common Ground. This is a two-day public event that explores how Ireland can respond to shared environmental and societal challenges, particularly climate change, sustainable resource use, and bridging skills gaps.

The festival is rooted in the RDS’s long-standing heritage, which dates to 1731, of advancing agriculture, science, enterprise and the arts for the public good. For nearly three centuries, the RDS has provided a platform where different disciplines and perspectives meet to improve Irish society. The festival continues this tradition by creating space for open dialogue, collaboration and learning across sectors at a time when complex challenges demand collective solutions.
