Gluaiseacht


Gluaiseacht for Global Justice is an Irish environmental, peace and social justice group. Gluaiseacht means "movement" in the Irish language. The group believes in non-violent resistance to the current form of capitalist globalisation. It was originally a network of Ecological and One World Societies at universities and colleges throughout Ireland. It is a member of the Irish [Environmental Network].
Gluaiseacht has been involved in anti-nuclear protests at the Trident submarine base in Faslane, Scotland, and the Sellafield nuclear plant.
Gluaiseacht organised the 2002 Ecotopia gathering in association with European Youth For Action.
