On Thursday 20th September 2018 the Steering Panel was in Dublin to discuss the panel’s current progress and future research projects. The Royal Irish Academy was delighted to host the panel in Academy House, with our own member, Professor Mike Jones being the Academy’s representative. Preceding the meeting in Academy House, the Royal Irish Academy, led by Professor Peter McHugh MRIA, Policy and International Relations Secretary, welcomed the panel to Dublin over dinner in the capital on Wednesday 19th September. It was a very enjoyable two days for all involved, and the Royal Irish Academy looks forward to seeing the future work done by the Steering Panel.
