What If...?

The exhibition was designed to spark conversations, encourage reflection, and inspire collective action on issues shaping our shared world. The theme of this year's edition is “WHAT IF…?” , an inspiring collaboration between students and artists from across Ireland and Rwanda’s African Leadership University.

The 2025-26 theme invites students and staff to explore creative and hopeful responses to global challenges: What if we reimagined how we live, learn, govern, care, and create?

Through provocative What if? questions and striking creative responses, the exhibition showcases radically hopeful visions for the future grounded in global justice.
