Friends of the Irish Environment - established in 1997 - is a network of conservationists and environmentalists committed to protecting Ireland's environment.

What we do:

• monitor the full implementation of, and to assist in the development of, European law;
• work for changes in the Irish planning laws;
• encourage the implementation of the right to full public participation;
• provide assistance to individuals, local groups, and the wider public in understanding environmental issues;
• seek proper implementation of environmental and planning law to support sustainable communities including the pursuit of concerns and cases in both the built and the natural environment.
