What was the League of Nations? Who was involved in it? How did Ireland’s membership impact the League? 

In September 1923 Ireland joined the League of Nations: the global organisation created after World War One to oversee international security and disarmament. What was the League of Nations? Who was involved in it? How did Ireland’s membership impact the League?

Explore with the co-curators Dr John Gibney, Dr Michael Kennedy and Zoë Reid, how an exhibition and accompanying publication marking one small state’s involvement in the first global experiment in international organisation has been developed.

Presented by the National Archives in partnership with the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Royal Irish Academy (Documents in Irish Foreign Policy).

On an equal footing: Ireland at the League of Nations 1923-1946 will be available to purchase on the night.
