The Minister of State for International Development and Diaspora, Neale Richmond TD, published the Government’s new Diaspora Strategy this morning, at the Global Irish Civic Forum. This is Ireland’s third diaspora strategy and sets out the priority areas for engagement with the Irish Abroad over the next five years. Based on almost a year of extensive consultations led by Minister of State Richmond, the strategy sets out 23 commitments built around the challenges and opportunities shared with us during the consultation process. The consultation also included the first ever online consultation with the Irish abroad. The Global Irish Survey which ran through the summer of 2025 received over 10,000 responses. The Global Irish Civic Forum is a biennial event that brings together over 250 representatives of Irish Diaspora organisations from across the world for knowledge sharing, networking opportunities and peer to peer support under the theme: “Strengthening Communities & Deepening Ties”. Details of the strategy and the Global Irish Civic Forum can be found on our website at https://lnkd.in/dVU7_-Qm https://lnkd.in/eb7rsFWj D’fhoilsigh an tAire Stáit um Fhorbairt Idirnáisiúnta agus Diaspóra, Neale Richmond TD, Straitéis nua Diaspóra an Rialtais ar maidin ag Fóram Saoránach na hÉireann Domhanda. Is í seo tríú straitéis diaspóra na hÉireann agus leagann sí amach na réimsí tosaíochta do rannpháirtíocht leis na hÉireannaigh Thar Lear thar na cúig bliana atá romhainn. Arna bunú ar bheagnach bliain de chomhairliúcháin fhairsinge faoi stiúir an Aire Stáit Richmond, leagann an straitéis amach 23 gealltanas atá bunaithe ar na dúshláin agus na deiseanna a roinneadh linn le linn an phróisis chomhairliúcháin. Áiríodh leis an gcomhairliúchán an chéad chomhairliúchán ar líne riamh leis na hÉireannaigh thar lear. Breis is 10,000 freagra a fuair Suirbhé na hÉireann Domhanda, a mhair ar feadh an tsamhraidh sa bhliain 2025. Is imeacht débhliantúil é Fóram Saoránach na hÉireann Domhanda a thugann le chéile breis is 250 ionadaí ó eagraíochtaí Diaspóra Éireannacha ó gach cearn den domhan chun eolas a roinnt, deiseanna líonraithe agus tacaíocht piaraí a fháil faoin téama: “Pobail a Neartú & Naisc a Dhoimhniú”.
