Established in 1990, the European Anti-Poverty Network Ireland is a network of groups and individuals working against poverty. It is the Irish national network of the European Anti Poverty Network (EAPN Europe), which has two decades of experience in lobbying for progressive social change at European level. Specific areas of expertise include the development, implementation and monitoring of national anti-poverty strategies, social inclusion and the open method of coordinaton, structural funds, employment and welfare strategies. Our Secretariat in Brussels conducts research and sets out policy proposals on a range of issues pertaining to European social policy. The Irish network undertakes complementary research and policy development – written for an Irish audience – to build national support for our efforts at European Level.
