INVITATION TO TENDER FOR DELIVERY AND FACILITATION OF ONLINE DIALOGUES
ALL ISLAND CIVIL SOCIETY FORUM ON THE ENVIRONMENT INVITATION TO TENDER
Northern Ireland Environment Link (NIEL) and the Irish Environment
Network (IEN) are the two membership organisations for the
environmental charity sectors in Northern Ireland and the Republic of
Ireland. NIEL has more than * organisational
members and IEN has *.
Both IEN and NIEL have been working together on joint projects for a
number of years. However, the withdrawal of the UK from the EU has
demonstrated a need for environmental civil society organisations
north and south to engage in greater all-island collaboration. The
most recent collaboration between IEN and NIEL was the commissioning
of research on post-Brexit all-island environmental governance and
recommendations on improving environmental cooperation on the island.
One of the recommendations of the report was the establishment of an
all-island civil society dialogue/forum on the environment.1
IEN and NIEL have been successful in securing funding to run an
all-island forum on the environment and are now looking for an
experienced external consultant/s with significant facilitation
experience to assist in the development and management of the Forum
over the next year.
_This project is being funded by the Government of Ireland Shared
Island Civic Society Fund_
PROJECT AIM:
The main purpose of this project is to promote and deepen cooperation
and dialogue between Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland ENGOs
and environmental civil society groups in order that the sector be
equipped to fully engage with, and respond to, the new environmental
regulatory and governance context post-Brexit
This project will give participants an opportunity to partake in an
in-depth dialogue on the environment with a focus on north/south
cooperation.
Finally, a key aim of the Forum is to create lasting networks between
environmental civil society organisations north and south.
