PPN DCU Summer School is back

This year’s PPN/DCU Summer School will take place between Monday 26 May and Thursday 29 May.  Once again, Dublin City PPN will partner with Dun Laoghaire Rathdown PPN, Fingal PPN and DCU to deliver training sessions for all PPN member groups free of charge.   

In-person morning workshops will take place from 10am until 12pm on DCU’s Glasnevin campus, followed by lunch, while evening sessions will take place from 7pm until 8.30pm online via Zoom.

All workshops were chosen to empower PPN members to affect and advocate for positive change in their communities. Topics to be covered this year include a panel discussion with the Department of Rural and Community Development, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion training, AI and Social Media training. PPN members may opt to attend one or more of the workshops available.

The Summer School also offers PPN members the chance to network and learn from each other. On Thursday, May 29th, there will be a PPN Networking Lunch so members can meet and socialise informally, while enjoying lunch and entertainment. Participants will also receive a certificate of attendance upon completion at the PPN Networking Lunch. We would love to see as many members there as possible!

Date: Monday, May 26th – Thursday, May 29th 2025
Delivery: In person & online
Time(s):  10am – 12pm (in-person at Dublin City University Campus), 7pm – 8.30pm (online)
