Ireland's Forgotten Generation

Make The Connection

I'm giving a voice to Ireland's young people (20s & 30s age group) aka 'The Forgotten Generation' as I'm calling us. In recent studies, we've been named one of the most expensive and lonely countries in Europe and that's evident in the mass emigration of young people from Ireland.
I asked a bunch of young people in Ireland and Irish abroad how they were feeling and some the biggest social issues they're all facing include loneliness, feeling like they're missing out on a better life, cost of living crisis, housing crisis and a multitude of emotions. It's a really interesting one, and a bit more of a serious chat but this episode is not about me, it's about how young people are really feeling with the state of Ireland in recent times. With a huge lack of support or care from the government, it seems we've had to take matters into our own hands if we want things to change...
