Dublin Rural LEADER at the DLR PPN Information and Networking Event 2025

The Dublin Rural LEADER team was delighted to take part in the DLR PPN Information and Networking Event 2025, an inspiring evening that brought together community groups, local organisations, and stakeholders from across Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown.

Hosted by the DLR Public Participation Network (PPN), the event provided an excellent opportunity for local groups to share ideas, explore partnerships, and learn about the supports available to strengthen community initiatives across the county.

As part of the event, the Dublin Rural LEADER team engaged with attendees to share insights about the LEADER Programme — a vital EU and government-funded initiative that supports rural development, innovation, and sustainability.

Through the LEADER Programme, we continue to help local communities and enterprises deliver projects that create positive social, environmental, and economic impact in rural areas of County Dublin.

We’d like to extend our thanks to the DLR PPN for hosting such a valuable and well-organised event, and to all the groups who stopped by to learn more about what we do.

Together, we’re working to build stronger, more connected, and resilient rural communities across Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown. 🌿
