Creative Pathways to Participation is a celebration and collaboration of community activists at All Together in Dignity Ireland
All Together in Dignity Ireland (ATD) are a non-governmental organisation committed to raising the voices of people in poverty.
Creative Pathways to Participation is a collection of poetry, writing and art showcasing the importance of creative outlets: for finding voice, self-expression, self-recognition and sharing insights on issues of social justice, equality and inclusion.
This project shines a light on the brave efforts made by many people struggling with poverty and social exclusion to express themselves publicly and to face barriers and inequalities head on. Written by ATD Ireland Community Activists and guests it explores themes of activism, poverty, inequality, sustainability, hope, community and love.
‘This book and collection of work is a celebration and collaboration of the spirit of the community activists here at ATD Ireland. This body of work and the personal and collective achievements of the authors over the last number of years is best demonstrated through the following pages. Through words and art, it is an opportunity to take stock of personal and collective development and growth.’ – foreword, ATD Ireland Community Activist Paul.
