Welcome from the Lord Mayor of Dublin

I am delighted to invite you to celebrate Dublin City Council’s Inclusion and Integration Week 2024! From the 11th – 17th November, we celebrate the diversity of our fair city and uplift all those for whom Dublin is home.

The city of Dublin is over 1,000 years old, and in those 1,000 years it is awe-inspiring to consider how much change has taken place. As we look at our city today, in 2024, we should all be so proud at how far it has come since the days of Vikings, revolutions and revolts. As a city we’ve seen declarations of independence and fights for women’s rights, we’ve freed ourselves from Home Rule and stood up for what we believed in on a national stage. This week honours all those who came before us to make Dublin the vibrant city it is now, and also allows us to summon a new spirit of public service for what we can and should achieve to make Dublin an even more inclusive and more integrated city in the future.

This week allows all Dubliners to come together, learn from each other and enjoy the city in a new and unique way. Through workshops, events, classes, activities and much more, Inclusion & Integration week strives to insure that participants of all walks of life are represented and included.

In the increasingly divided times we live in on a global level, it is essential to actively promote unity. I hope you will all join me in celebrating one and all this Inclusion and Integration Week.

Dublin Autism Friendly Capital City

The Lord Mayor of Dublin and Dublin City Council have committed to partner with AsIAm, Ireland’s Autism Charity, to work towards recognition as the world’s first Autism-Friendly Capital City.

This journey will involve the recruitment of “Autism-Friendly Champion” businesses, public services and voluntary organisations to improve accessibility in the city, a series of public consultations and also the creation of a 3 year plan for how Dublin can remove barriers for Autistic people having the same chance to live, work and play in our city. This plan will be drafted through direct engagement with Autistic people, family members and the wider community.
