Behavioural insight is a foundation of the EPA’s Circular Economy Programme, providing evidence to inform policy, behavioural change interventions and awareness campaigns.
The EPA contracted Ipsos to carry out this quantitative research to monitor incidence of repair activities at the national level and evaluate repair initiatives and support available to the Irish public. Where relevant, this study benchmarks against the previous National Repair Survey 2022.
The fieldwork for the online survey of a nationally representative sample of 1,002 adults aged 16+ was carried out in October and November 2024.
