Get Involved
The regions greatest asset is the people that make up its communities. It is important that their voice guides the project and its outcomes. Over the coming months a combination of online and in-person events will be used to capture the views of residents and ensure that they are empowered in developing and implementing new solutions for the region.
Community Capacity Building Workshops
The project aims to empower local communities in shaping a smart and sustainable future for the North Kerry – West Limerick region. As such, a key element of the project is the staging of community capacity building workshops for residents in the region. These workshops will take place in the participating communities and will familiarise attendees with key concepts and practices and provide training in employing smart village technologies.
