Concern Workshops

I'm planning a post later on the Concern development education workshops I facilitated around the country last month. I had a great bunch of Transition Year students in Galway, Dublin and Cork. This is an ongoing project aimed at raising awareness of global child exploitation. There are currently over 200 million children being used for labour in the world today.

More Caricatures from the Weekend

As promised here are some more caricatures from the weekend.

The Young Doctors!

A little later than intended, here are some of the caricatures I did of the doctors of the future at the Trinity Medical Ball in the Leopardstown Pavilion last Friday night. It was great craic, the organising committee hid golden tickets under loads of seats, and the winners got a caricature from me! I'll have some of the caricatures from the Gresham Christmas Party (yep, in January!) up later.

Clear, Stat! it's the Trinity Medical Ball!

I'm entertaining the doctors of tomorrow, tonight, in the Leopardstown Pavillion for the Trinity College Medical Ball. Should be fun! I'll be posting the results on Monday. I hope there won't be any future plastic surgeons there, I'd hate for my caricatures to be a bad influence.

On Sunday night I'll be in the Portmarnock Golf Club for a private function. Maybe I should bring my clubs as well as my pens. Why I haven't played golf since...

... the Ryder Cup!

UPDATE: Images from the Trinity Medical Ball can be seen here!

SPAN cartoons and about the Project

I've put all the SPAN cartoons together here. It's a good way of showing what I can do for documenting conferences and meetings.

SPAN (Strategic Planning Action Network - Réseau de Programmation Stratégique Active) is a “North-West Europe” Interreg III B inter-regional cooperation project. Eight partners from four regions in four European Union Member States are involved in SPAN.

The project has an overall budget of EUR 4 million, 60% of which is funded by ERDF, through the Interreg III B Community Initiative.

SPAN aims to develop innovative approaches to strategic planning for the benefit of all the partner regions and test them under actual conditions. The stress is placed on the participation of civil society in the planning of territorial interventions at regional, infra-regional and local levels. The project also aims to shed new light on relations between urban and rural areas, relations which could be put to better use in the future.
