Young Social Innovators find their voices at 'Speak Out' event

Self-awareness and self-defence were strong themes among stage performances by teens showcasing their work to highlight social issues.

More than 40 schools from around Munster gave a flavour of their projects for the Young Social Innovators (YSI) programme at Cork City Hall over the last two days, covering issues as diverse as homophobic bullying and rural isolation to road and water safety.
