Ballina 2023, together with The Mary Robinson Centre, Mayo County Council and the University of Galway, will hold a week-long international sustainability assembly in July 2023, supported by a broad group of national and regional stakeholders.

The programme will focus on the theme of sustainable development and enabling grassroots community climate action, exploring the international perspective and the local perspective in Ballina, connecting communities, practitioners, agencies and government with academics and researchers, through dialogue, deliberation, arts and music.
