Dublin Forum


The Dublin Forum was a political project based in Ireland's capital city, Dublin. It was founded by Kevin Byrne as an initiative of the Fianna Fáil political party, to provide a new structure for the involvement of those who are interested in politics and want a forum to express their ideas and concerns and participate in debate and policy development.

Launch

The Dublin Forum was launched by the then Taoiseach Bertie Ahern in 2000, and hosted a schedule of monthly public debates.

Meetings

Issues addressed covered the major social, economic, historical and political issues of the day. Debates featured a wide array of representatives, commentators, experts, politicians, from both North and South, and ministers from most government departments.
