ICON Community Manifesto

Following a meeting in the Gresham Hotel on 27th January 2011, the ICON Action Group was formed.

The first piece of work of the group was to develop a community manifesto for the general election to let the candidates know the issues that are important on the ground.

Download the ICON Community Manifesto and send it to the candidates or use on the door steps.

Welcome to the ICON Website

The Inner City Organisations Network (ICON) is the community based network for the north east inner city, committed to fighting against disadvantage and ensuring that the voice of the community is heard.

ICON is a voluntary organisation made up of community projects, local tenant's groups, as well as individuals working and living in the area. A key focus of the organisation is to create forums for debate and local policy making and to explore issues affecting the local community in areas such as drugs, education, housing, intercultural issues and the impact of urban developments in the area.

Inherent in the aims of the organisation is a commitment to pursuing a partnership approach between statutory and non-statutory sectors as well as actively encouraging the participation of local tenants and residents in initiatives such as the North Inner City Drugs Task Force and the Dublin Inner City Partnership. This extends to developments that have significant impact on the area such as the Dublin Docklands Development and the Dublin City Council Area Plan for the North Inner City.
