In September 2022, we launched the Business and Community Forums. The forums bring together people and organisations from across the project area so that stakeholder, community views and local businesses can be discussed, understood and properly considered throughout the lifecycle of the project. ​

We hosted two separate information events on Tuesday 27 September, the first for local businesses and business representative groups and the second for local communities and stakeholders.

The Powering Up Dublin Community Forum brings together people and organisations from across the Greater Dublin Area so that stakeholder and community views can be discussed, understood, and properly considered prior to and during project delivery. This community forum will create the opportunity for dialogue between stakeholders with diverse and direct interest in the project and the Powering Up Dublin Project team.

Role of the Forum:

• Represent the views of their community in relation to the project
• Consider the project and provide guidance on local needs and priorities
• Assist in enabling the resolution of local issues resulting from the project in a timely manner
• Provide feedback to the project team
• Facilitate a ‘local voice’ and communicate information to a wider group of regional and local stakeholders

Membership of the Forum:

Membership of the Forum will consist of representatives from local resident and community associations, disability and special interest groups and sporting organisations in the project areas. Membership will also extend to local public representatives.

If you would like to become a member of the Forum please email Dublin@eirgrid.ie or call 087 188 7982
