Speakers
Dr Philip Kiszely is a lecturer, cultural historian and Senior Fellow at the New Culture Forum. He has published extensively in the fields of history and education and, much to his professional cost, has been outspoken against identity politics and the activist impulse in the media and institutions.
Laoise de Brún BL is a mother of three, barrister and campaigner. She is the founder CEO of The Countess, a gender-critical advocacy organisation that campaigns for the rights of women, children and families in Ireland.
John Smeaton is Vice-President of the International Right to Life Federation and co-founder of Voice of the Family, an international organisation established in 2014 to support bishops seeking to uphold Catholic teaching on marriage, human sexuality, and the sanctity of human life.
Callum Webster is the Christian Institute’s Northern Ireland Officer, where he works to defend principles such as the sanctity of life and marriage, religious freedom and liberty of conscience from being undermined in Northern Ireland as elsewhere.
