    <itunes:subtitle>This short series of programmes is a collaboration between the Office of the President and RTE.</itunes:subtitle>
    <itunes:summary>The Series comprises three programmes; each covers a separate theme under the overall heading of “Ireland of Tomorrow”.  Each programme and theme has a keynote speaker and was recorded at Áras an Uachtaráin, with the President as host. An invited audience of young people engaged with the speakers and proceedings were moderated by Joe Duffy. The rationale for a young audience was that the Ireland of tomorrow being explored in the Series will be largely for them to inherit, lead and live.</itunes:summary>
