National campaign launched ๐ฃ PhD stipends are way below minimum wage so I had to save up before starting one. Time to protect vulnerable PGs across Ireland ๐ฎ๐ช #supportirishphds #supportirishresearch @PhDRights @pgwanuig @AntiCasualUcd
ATTENTION POSTGRAD WORKERS OF IRELAND!
We are delighted to launch our national campaign and charter for #PostgradRights. This campaign is made up of a coalition of postgrad workers' alliances from across Ireland @PhDRights, @AntiCasualUcd & @pgwanuig.
What a mad week this has been. Donโt forget your self-worth - PhD students are the backbone of research! #supportirishphds #supportirishresearch
This is why we included working status, welfare supports and a living wage for PhD researchers in our #RemoveTheBarriers motion on higher education two weeks ago.
Vote is on Thursday, what way will other parties vote?

In the ever expanding bullshit of being a PhD โstudentโ. My stipend is considered โincomeโ with regards to assessment for a Medical Card. But apparently I am NOT an employee so obviously not eligible for insurance etc.
Legit just trying not to die
Great news! IRC stipends will increase from โฌ16k to โฌ18.5k/ annum! There's plenty of work to do but this is a massive milestone #supportirishresearch #supportirishphds
@IrishResearch welcomes the increase in stipends and salaries for our early career researchers announced by Minister @SimonHarrisTD and the @DeptofFHed today.

Finally, we will be renaming our group to the TCD Postgraduate Workers' Alliance. Our group will represent both PhDs & postgrads working in TCD!
We wish you all a very happy New Year & we are looking forward to continuing our campaign in 2021! #postgradrights #supportirishphds
As we near the end of a turbulent & disruptive year for PhDs & research, we would like to thank you all for your support throughout & wish you a happy New Year. Though #COVID19 fundamentally changed the way we campaign, it did not stop us (1/5) #supportirishphds
Thank you @noteworthy_ie & @mhdelaney for providing excellent coverage of this issue. While to some, postgraduate workers rights may seem niche, it is a fundamental problem that will decide the future direction of Irish research and its standing in Europe #supportirishphds
The NFDE fails to: acknowledge that a PhD's research is not purely for education purposes; recognise the diversity of PhDs from age to nationality; address employment rights; represent the opinions of PhDs or those in Irish research #supportirishphds
A PhD is the first step in a career in research. @IUAofficial @JimMiley must listen to PhDs when creating the Research Career Development & Employment Framework (RCF). To disregard PhDs, is to disregard their contribution to research #supportirishphds

YES! Iโve been re-elected as Research Officer! Massive thanks to those who voted for me. As said at the @TrinityGSU AGM, weโll be drafting a motion with @GoddessGuide thatโll ensure contracts & a proper living wage for PhDs @PhDRights #supportirishphds
If you are a TCD PhD and would like to get more involved in the campaign for PhD workers' rights, please sign up to the TCD PhD Workers' Rights Group #supportirishphds

Well said @SerenaFuji for raising the damage caused to the relationship between the TPWRG & @TrinityGSU , the constitutional breaches that have occurred and the fact this is the first GSU council during the #COVID19 pandemic! #supportirishphds
Congrats to @SerenaFuji re-elected as research officer and to @tenayajorgensen and @Mark_B4 who were elected as reps for the schools of Histories & Humanities and Chemistry respectively. All our members of the TPWRG and great advocates for PhD workers' rights #supportirishphds
The mechanic who is fixing my car loves his work and has had his knowledge advanced through the difficult experience of fixing my car. He has become an even better mechanic thanks to me. I will therefore not be paying him.

Minister, how can you justify not paying the postgrads teaching in our universities? https://t.co/hQTWyhmZ9x
@TrinityGSU AGM is kicking off @ 5pm today. Despite this being the first council of the semester & there being serious breaches of the GSU constitution, there will be no Q&As. That is moved until next year. All TCD PGs should attend to voice their anger! #supportirishphds
We, along with @AntiCasualUcd & @pgwanuig, would be delighted to meet with you @SimonHarrisTD to discuss issues affecting postgraduate workers' rights. But just to clarify- research is WORK, teaching is WORK. It is not education or upskilling #supportirishphds
Minister, how can you justify not paying the postgrads teaching in our universities? https://t.co/hQTWyhmZ9x
Thanks to everyone whoโs voted &voted for me in the @TrinityGSU elections! Every voice counts. Voting closes today at 12pm so make sure you get yours in ๐ฃโ๐ฝ #supportirishphds #supportirishresearch @PhDRights
It's time for work done by PhD researchers to be recognised and for an end to work without pay!
PhDs are workers and we should get a living income at absolute minimum.
Postgrad workers are getting organised - join us @PhDRights @AntiCasualUcd
