Huge congratulations to our @ConcernDebates 2026 team, who have progressed to the All-Ireland Quarter Finals. Wishing the team all the very best of luck for their debate against St Joseph's, Lucan, on 19th March. Largy abú! #bród
From over 170 students who took part in this year’s Concern Debates programme — we are now down to the final 8! 🎉
Their Quarter Final motion will be: “AI is a force for global good.” 🤖🌍
#ConcernDebates
Debaters are currently preparing for Knock-Out Round 3!
The motion is: Global conflict represents the biggest barrier to reducing carbon emissions 🌍🤔
We can't wait to hear your thoughts! 📢
#ConcernDebates#GlobalCitizenship#ClimateAction
We're back and Knock-Out Round 1 is about to begin!
The first motion of 2026 is...
"Gen Z has the power to end global poverty"
#ConcernDebates#GlobalCitizenship#GenZ
Today marks the start of League Phase 3 of the Concern Debates programme 2025-2026! 🌍💚
'Global commitments to ending world hunger are a load of hot air'
Are promises to “feed the world” genuine commitments — or just empty talk to keep up appearances?

Great day yesterday celebrating 40 years of @ConcernDebates .i never had a talent for Music or sport, in 1997 as a 15year old TY student I first started taking part in @ConcernDebates p. My confidence grew and the skills I learned and knowledge I learned have really shaped my 1/2
The @laurelhillsec team are this year’s all-island Concern Debates winners after a great contest with @SandfordUnion this evening in Dublin.
Congrats to all students, teachers and parents involved.
