Our World (2007)

Ireland's Traveller Women (2020x15)

Air date: May 15, 2020

Irish society has changed dramatically in recent years, but discrimination against travellers remains widespread. In 2017, in a bid to change public attitudes, travellers were formally recognised by Ireland's government as a distinct ethnic group, but many say they are still unfairly treated. Our World meets three young women fighting to bust the myths about their community and make their dreams a reality.
