Study Groups

DSA Ireland Study Groups are open to all DSA Ireland members.  Study Groups are an opportunity for members to link with those who have an interest in the same research area in international development.

DSA Ireland currently runs nine groups: civil society; education; gender; information technology and development; humanitarian action; climate and development; business and development;  nutrition and health and a postgraduate network.  Each group is run by a Study Group Coordinator with experience and/or expertise in that area.
