Petition updateReturning Human Remains - Trinity College Dublin to Inishbofin, County Galway, IrelandDecision on the status of the Inishbofin human remains at TCD

The Board of Trinity College Dublin issued the following statement based on the results of the Board's December 14 decision: "The Board of Trinity College Dublin decided today [December 14] to work with the people of Inishbofin and the statutory authorities to find a solution to the question of what to do with the crania that respects the wishes of the islanders."

This is a welcome step forward, but it appears that the process is still ongoing without a definitive answer as to when the human remains will be returned to Inishbofin.

Thank you for your support in bringing awareness and attention to this issue.
