GSG 25-26 Visa Petition

Description
Please support and share: Visa for Gaza students petition
Please see below a petition calling on the Government to approve visas for students from Gaza who have been awarded scholarships to study at Irish universities.
A number of these students have had their visa applications refused, despite securing university places through scholarship programmes. With the new academic year fast approaching, there is an urgent need for these decisions to be reviewed so that the students can take up the places they have worked so hard to earn.
The petition has already been signed by more than 6,000 people.

Please sign the petition and share it as widely as possible within your branch, among workplace representatives and with members. Every additional signature will help reinforce the call for these students to be granted the visas they need to begin their studies in Ireland.
