Understanding the Identity of Young Men in Post-Conflict Northern Ireland

A post-graduate student from the United States is conducting research for a project that addresses issues regarding young men in Northern Ireland today.  The project focuses on understanding how young men’s social and political identities have been influenced by their experiences of living in Northern Ireland during the 1990s transitional period.  Furthermore, the project examines how these experiences have impacted not only young men’s mental health and behaviour, but also their perceptions of masculinity.  The researcher is looking to interview men who are between the ages of 27-38, and who were not only born in Northern Ireland, but also lived in Northern Ireland during the 1990s - particularly between 1994 to 1998.  Research will be conducted throughout March until 30th April 2015.  To participate, contact Jenna Lada at email: This email address is being protected from spambots.
