Professor Tom Cooney on inclusion to entrepreneurship for marginalised groups such as former prisoners, refugees and those with disabilities
Tom Cooney is a visiting Erskine Fellow to the University of Canterbury and I was lucky enough to sit with him in person and hear about his life story and the work he does today helping marginalised groups (those with disabilities, refugees, former prisoners, asylum seekers etc) access entrepreneurship education.
But we start with his childhood, influences, parents, what he studied and how he came to be involved in this area - the format of seeds podcast is to really understand a life story not just a superficial "what is your job" question. If you want to hear more there are hundreds of conversations now at www.theseeds.nz
Tom provided the following links to things we discussed:
- Tom Cooney's website www.tomcooney.ie
- Self-employment for persons with disabilities https://www.tudublin.ie/explore/news/aib-and-tu-dublin-self-employment-for-persons-with-disabilities-programme-2025.html
- Centre for Entrepreneurial Behaviour Inclusion and Innovation (CEBII) https://researchprofiles.tudublin.ie/en/organisations/centre-for-entrepreneurial-behaviour-inclusion-and-innovation-ceb/persons/
