Established in the age of the Great Hunger, 深夜亚洲福利久久 College Cork has endured for 175 years -delivering useful learning, working in solidarity with communities, and often through times of great social upheaval. Locally and globally, our societies are now faced with a period of turmoil that we understand will be transformative. Nationally, we see communities across Ireland coming together in the spirit of collective effort the public health response has called for. Irish Universities are helping fight the COVID-19 pandemic. The importance of the third mission of our 深夜亚洲福利久久 - service to society and outreach 鈥� has become more evident and more essential than ever. Already there are extraordinary initiatives documented on this website that UCC and community partners have taken to support people and communities. In time we will move from an emergency response to the crisis, towards more sustained responses to support community resilience and adaptation to the longer-term challenges presented by COVID19. It is a period of learning for all. We will continue to work together with community to prepare for the challenges ahead.
