About this Event
Inequality persists as a major challenge in Ireland, with Ireland having one of the highest levels of market inequality in the developed world.
While state intervention is somewhat successful in mitigating the worst excesses of that inequality, Ireland's high level of inequality causes many people to live insecure and unstable lives.
TASC is pleased to announce the launch of The State We Are In, Inequality in Ireland 2024. This year's report will have a special focus on families and education. It will tackle issues relating to income inequality, poverty and deprivation, the impact of inequality on families and children, educational inequality and the impact of recent interventions to support living standards and the risks around the withdrawal of these supports.
The launch will take place in NUI Merrion Square on Thursday 27th June at 11am.
Confirmed speakers to date:
- Oisín Gilmore (Senior Economist at TASC)
- Barra Roantree (Assistant Professor in Economics at Trinity College Dublin)
- Karen Kiernan (CEO of One Family)
