👀 Love to see the pressure building both inside and outside the Dáil. The current exploitation of PGRs can't go on.

Thanks to Rose Conway-Walsh for raising this today, and Seathrún for USI PG Rep #LeChéileDoChách for his inquiry to Revenue
#WorkersNotStudents #PGRsDeserveBetter

Very brave of Seathrún for USI PG Rep #LeChéileDoChách to go public on this. The declarations we make to Revenue are patently false + reveal the truth - we are workers, not students

Denial of this basic fact enables exploitation that is at the heart of Irish higher ed + research

'Every funding award comes with the need to sign a declaration to the Revenue Commission that one’s stipend is not received in exchange for any service (e.g., teaching). For more than two-thirds of our members, this declaration is false.'

For PhD researchers, the cost of living crisis is far more than a crisis, it is pushing many out of academia and research because they are simply not paid enough to live, writes the Postgraduate Workers' Organisation

Thank you so much for the support László Molnárfi!!

Go raibh míle maith agat as an tacaíocht a László!!

Don't use ChatGPT for academic research. It creates fake citations to papers that don't even exist.

Instead, use Consensus — an AI-powered search engine designed for academics.

Ask it a question and it'll give you a summary of top 5-10 (real) published papers.

Coverage of the protest yesterday: “I wouldn’t recommend anyone come here to do a PhD unless the conditions change.”

Better pay or stay away.

It was great to see such a big turnout at the PWO Ireland protest today outside the Dáil, and see the result of all the hard work we have put into building it.
The voices are clear, we need radical change and we need it now #PGRsDeserveBetter 1/8
