Enjoy inspirational pieces written largely by citizens of Cork

At Good Day Cork, we curate diverse series designed to give mariginalised voices  a platform a space to speak, to tell their stories and to belong.

We’ve also archived four issues of our glossy magazine Good Day News for your reading pleasure. This was the beginning of Good Day Cork – for two years readers used to enjoy it in print form before the publication embraced a new, digital identity that meant we could also bring you positive news in the form of videos and podcasts.

Enjoy browsing through the library of reads below. And if there’s anything you’d like to see here, just get in touch.

Activist Reflections

A few students of Creativity and Change at MTU, Cork share their reflections of their practice.

Their blogs were published by Good Day Cork in 2023. The aim of these blogs is to amplify the creative practise of change makers – how they develop their ideas, how they put it in action to affect change. Get inspired!
