Guthanna Óga - Young Voices is the youth advisory panel for Fighting Words and Fighting Words Northern Ireland. These young people are the most important advisors to our staff and board, not only because they are responsible for bringing the voices of young people into a room of adults, but also because they are our only official panel that spans the whole island of Ireland. Guthanna Óga - Young Voices brings together the perspectives and experiences from all of Fighting Words centres.
