In a country viewed as full of greenery, folklore, and warm hospitality, join us in this podcast as we explore the overlooked experience of environmental racism faced by the Irish Traveller community. This podcast delves into how members of the Traveller community, a racialised group, experience dual challenges of climate change and societal discrimination and institutional barriers, affecting their wellbeing and quality of life. Emma Brady draws on her background in Social Care, experience in homeless services, and health services, along with her current Environmental Psychology Master’s degree to highlight inequality and unequal distribution of environmental harm experienced by Irish Travellers and offers strategies to support the marginalised Indigenous community of Irish Travellers and promote social equity.
