I'm on Brainstorm this morning with a piece on sex & surveillance in 18th and 19th century Ulster. Read about how Presbyterians spied & gossiped to expose the naughty behaviour of their neighbours 👇 #HistFam #HistSex #PiousPromiscuous

Met yesterday with Minister Veiga and today with the Ministry of Communities and the Institute of Cultural Heritage of Cabo Verde to discuss our work at @EPICMuseumCHQ. Pico Lopes of Shamrock Rovers, of course, getting plenty of kudos. Thanks to @irlemblisbon for their support.

Great to be in Cabo Verde to share learnings from Ireland's experience of diaspora engagement. Spoke at the International Congress of Cabo Verdean Professionals alongside Minister of Culture and Creative Industries Augusto Veiga, Prof Manuel Brito-Semedo and Dr Filomeno Lopes.
