On Friday 2 and Saturday 3 December 2022 UCD will host a national conference as part of the Decade of Centenaries Programme 2012-2023, marking one hundred years since the foundation of the Irish State.
This major two-day conference seeks to explore the process of state formation amid an ongoing civil war and uncertainty over the future of the border with Northern Ireland, the evolution of the institutions of the state since 1922, and the challenges that state, society, and citizenry faced a century ago. The aim of this conference is to inform and stimulate wider public discourse on this key event in the history of Irish independence and statehood.
A simultaneous English-Irish and Irish-English translation will be available for the duration of the conference, for both in-person and online attendees and there will be sign language interpretation throughout.
The conference is funded by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media through the Decade of Centenaries Programme and by UCD.
