Donie Tarrant talks to Noeline Blackwell, a human rights lawyer who is Chief Executive of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre. She was formerly the Director General of the Free Legal Advice Centre (FLAC), and before that, was the principal of a solicitor’s practice in Dublin. Noeline sits on the Citizens Information Board, the board of the Immigrant Council of Ireland and on the board of Front Line Defenders. She has previously been a member of the boards of the International Federation of Human Rights (FIDH) and Amnesty International, Ireland.
Noeline talks about the importance of respecting words, the legislation around hate speech in Ireland and where to go from there against the context of migration to and from Ireland and how society has evolved in this new multicultural reality.
