In 2022, Ireland granted legal status to undocumented immigrants who had been in the country for at least four years. This landmark achievement was ten years of fearless undocumented leadership and constant campaigning in the making. Thanks to the courageous coming out of undocumented leaders, supported and sustained by Migrant Right Centre Ireland, the Justice for Undocumented Campaign rewrote the rules and led the government to grant legal status to 11,000 people. Learn how undocumented leaders and native Irish organizers illuminated the invisible, activated national history, and ramped up political pressure under COVID quarantine to secure big wins.
