The National Executive has a term of office of two years and meets once a month with the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth, and the National Participation Office team in Dublin to progress their topic.

Our topic: 

The Comhairle na nÓg National Executive 2022-24 commenced their term on Sat 12th February 2022. Until Spring 2024, this group will be working on the theme of Equality with a specific focus on A more inclusive relationships and sexuality education 

Background to this topic: 

The theme for Dáil na nÓg 2022 was Equality. Over 200 young people aged 12-17 took part in the event in the Convention Centre and had the opportunity to discuss all aspects of this theme. A report is currently being compiled on the findings of the workshops that took place there. The three areas of Equality that were discussed by the delegates of Dáil na nÓg were:

  • Addressing inequality and barriers to education
  • Addressing gender inequality
  • A more inclusive relationships and sexuality education

A more inclusive relationships and sexuality education was the area that received the most votes and will be the primary focus of the work of this National Executive. As a result, this will form the basis of the work-plan for the National Executive 2022-24
