In Ireland, it is against the law to discriminate against a person, either directly or indirectly, on the grounds of, gender, marital status, family status, sexual orientation, religious belief, age, disability, race, and membership of the Traveller Community. This resource explores the nature of identity and historical events that have had an impact on the fight against discrimination.

Pupils will explore what it means to discriminate or to be discriminated against. They will also examine the concept of identity.
