Details

A=AGHT is a semi-utopic virtual space/town whose rules, population and culture are generated by a facilitated exchange between youth from New Orleans and Tallaght. Adult artists and cultural workers from both cities developed projects that encourage youth participants to explore historic moments, social grievances, ethnic and racial disparities in order to invent a place of creative resolve.

Project Scope: Vision, Aim, & Objectives

Why this project is being done:
A=AGHT hopes to inspire other educators to develop programmes that are compelling, challenging and constructive.
Who or what this project would impact:
A=AGHT hopes to encourage young people to consider and address immediate concerns through challenging questions and projects.
Project intends to address:
A=AGHT is a concept based on creating the same sound from two entirely different spellings. This idea began a process of identifying and extracting commoness in seemingly different communities. NOLA (New Orleans) and Tallaght (South Dublin)
Included or excluded:
A=AGHT was built by participants under the tutelage of Jackie Sumell and Maria Hinds. Funding for A=AGHT was made possible by a grant provided for by South Dublin County Council's project, In Context 3.
