The Shared Island Youth Forum was launched as part of the Government’s Shared Island initiative, in September 2023. The Forum brought together 80 young people aged 18 to 25 from across the island, who met over the next year to develop a statement of their vision and values for a shared future on the island of Ireland.

Four members of the Shared Island Youth Forum, Eden Byrne, Tiarnan Moss from Co-Operation Ireland,  Alannah Wrynn and Charlie Beaudelot generously took time out to chat with Susanne Rogers about their experiences in the Youth Form and their work on the Statement.
