The Global Island in a Changing World: Brexit, Protectionism and the Implications for Ireland with Consul General of Ireland, Brian O'Brien

Ireland is the EU country that stands to be most seriously affected by the UK's exit from the EU.
As one of the world's most open economies, 'The Global Island' also stands to be affected by the wider international trend towards protectionism. How is Ireland confronting these challenges? How will it seek to protect its interests in the UK's EU exit negotiations launched this March? And how will the relationship, political and economic, with Northern Ireland be affected?

Join Ireland's Consul General to the Midwest, Brian O'Brien, to discuss what Ireland's Taoiseach (Prime Minister) has described as 'the greatest economic and social challenge' his country has faced in the last half century.
