Back Community Grants

Purpose: Encourage citizens’ participation and involvement in the city through access to public grants for community projects

Process:

Community Development is a process where community members come together to take collective action and generate solutions to common problems. Dublin City Council aims to support community groups with their activities and projects by promoting participation and involvement in the city through the community grants scheme, which is run on an annual basis.

Under the scheme community and voluntary groups may apply for grants for activities which benefit the local community. The criteria required to receive support from this grant fund is that Groups are locally based, and contribute significantly to the local community development. Besides, applications must relate to at least one key priority area in order to be eligible for consideration.

The key priority areas are the following:

  • Community Development
  • Social inclusion
  • Integration
  • Local area issues

Dublin Council Community Development Officers are in charge of reaching out to community members, inform and assist them, and help to build strong social networks which are essential for viable, inclusive, sustainable communities. They work to give everyone in the community the opportunity to participate in the life of the city and have their voices heard.
