XIX Symposium of Irish Studies in South America

The idea for theme of the XIX Symposium of Irish Studies in South America, Narratives of Responsibility: Ethics, the Environment and the Arts, originated from the upcoming COP 30, which will be held in the north of Brazil, in Belém do Pará, in 2025. This is the first time Brazil will host a UN Climate Change Conference, which may inspire the partcipants of the Symposium to reflect upon the role of literature, music, visual and performative arts in telling the history of the present for future generations. The symposium receives artists, writers, critics, filmmakers, pianist and researchers from Brazil and abroad.
