The Environmental Protection Agency is developing a new Corporate Strategy for 2027–2031, which will define our purpose, vision and values and identify the priorities and goals that will guide our work for the next five years.

We want to listen to the voices across society and communities throughout Ireland to hear how we might approach our purpose and vision in a way that delivers for everyone.

We want to understand:

  • Which issues are the most important and where we should focus our efforts in the coming five years;
  • How we can make environmental evidence and information more accessible; and
  • Where better cooperation could improve environmental outcomes.

Consultation is open to everyone. You do not need specialist or technical knowledge to take part. We welcome views based on your own interests, experiences and priorities.
