ATL Introducing

Available for over a year

Is there a ‘brain drain’ of talent among young people in Northern Ireland? In a post covid world, will we see a resurgence of young graduates, vocational workers and talent leaving our shores? Is the lack of career opportunities, political uncertainty and low wages causing people to leave? Megan Wilson speaks to student Luke, graduates Katie and Aodhan, artist Sara O’Neill and Principal and CEO of Belfast MET, Louise Warde Hunter, about what's going on.
