Along with working with helping the young people of the Youth as Researchers Project at the UNESCO Child and Family Research Centre, NUI Galway, document their research on video (which can be seen here) we have also produced videos to promote the work the centre does.

Actor Cillian Murphy appeared as a special guest of the UNESCO Child and Family Research Centre at NUI Galway on 31st January for a screening and discussion of the film ‘Broken’. The actor, a patron of the Centre, was interviewed by young researchers in a post-screening discussion on how young people interpret the film’s portrayal of family, relationships and community.
