Join our team!
Are you passionate about technology and eager to make a difference with young people?
If you're excited to empower young people to shape the ‘near future', we want you!
Academy of the Near Future is a flag-ship collaboration between CONNECT, Research Ireland Centre for Future Networks and Communications in Trinity College Dublin, Dublin City Council, Fingal County Council and Smart Docklands.
As technology continues to advance, there is a growing need to equip citizens with the tools to understand the opportunities and risks technology brings and how data can be used to tackle key urban, environmental, and societal challenges.
This role has been created in collaboration between Fingal County Council and TCD to build upon and expand the foundational programme developed by TCD and DCC. This role will work with the wider team to design programme content and deliver workshops with young people in the Fingal area.
Your experience
We are seeking a researcher-educator who works critically, creatively, and collaboratively; someone who can hold space for young people to become co-designers, co-researchers, and full partners in imagining possible futures.
Candidates should have excellent group facilitation skills and a keen interest in innovation, design and how technology is shaping the future of our cities.
