Rewilding in Ireland: Lessons from Costa Rica and Scotland. Eoghan Daltun, in conversation with Pádraic Fogarty
Join us for an afternoon of storytelling and discussion, as Irish Wildlife Trust board member Eoghan Daltun reflects on his latest book Set the Land Free. Eoghan’s research took him to both Costa Rica and Scotland as he sought to understand rewilding far beyond his home in the Beara Peninsula. Speaking with renowned ecologist and environmental campaigner Pádraic Fogarty, Eoghan will outline what we in Ireland can learn from their experiences as we begin our rewilding journey. This event is a collaboration between the Trinity Centre for Environmental Humanities and the Irish Wildlife Trust.
