Strategic lawsuits against public participation (SLAPPs) are abusive legal threats and actions brought by powerful and wealthy people against public watchdogs with the aim of silencing them. At this full-day conference, attendees will hear from a wide-range of stakeholders, including campaigners, academics, journalists, lawyers and politicians from across the island, as they discuss how SLAPPs have manifested themselves in an Irish context.
