Due to unforeseen circumstances the Shared Island: Shared Opportunity NESC Hybrid Event, in association with the Department of the Taoiseach, is being rescheduled.
A new date will be announced shortly.
Taoiseach Micheál Martin T.D. will speak at this NESC event to discuss the findings of the NESC report to Government on the Shared Island.
The event will be moderated by Mr. Tommie Gorman, Journalist.
As part of the Government’s Shared Island Initiative the Department of the Taoiseach requested the National Economic and Social Council (NESC) to undertake research and to produce a comprehensive report on the Shared Island, to inform the development of the Shared Island initiative as a whole of Government priority.
The focus of the event is to discuss the main findings in relation to economic policy and infrastructure, social policy, climate and biodiversity, and well-being from a shared island perspective. Extensive consultation and research informed the report.
The event will be of interest to policy makers, business, environmental, community and voluntary organisations, practitioners, local authorities, academics and interested individuals across the island.
The report and event is a culmination of work over the last year, where NESC published two Council Reports, six Secretariat Papers and one Background Paper on the Shared Island, see NESC’s website at www.nesc.ie.
