The Dublin City Area Based Partnerships are pleased to present
this report “New Ways of Mapping Social Inclusion in Dublin City”.
This initiative is a collaboration between the Area Based
Partnerships, Dublin City Development Board (DCDB) and the
National Institute for Regional and Spatial Analysis (NIRSA).
The commissioning of this report stemmed from a need to source
accurate and timely data to aid the targeted delivery of supports to
help those most at need within our communities.
The research has created a localised evidence base which will
ensure a more effective deployment of our limited resources. This
will have the potential to achieve better outcomes within our
communities.
The report demonstrates that with the agreement of data holders
we can significantly enhance our knowledge base and decision
making.
We expect that on reading this report, government bodies, and
other relevant stakeholders will see the benefits in sharing
information at a local level to inform policy making and, as a result,
ensure the better targeting and delivery of public resource
