Options and Issues in Development Group

The Options and Issues group was set up by a number of returned development workers who wanted to examine the role of the development worker in the broad context of development.

The group now offers weekend workshops to people who are considering getting involved in development work, either in Ireland or abroad. The workshops aim to critically examine the reality of development work and look at different types of development work, as well as offering participants an opportunity to meet with returned development workers and those working in global development in Ireland.

The group also offers practical information about sending agencies and a handbook, ‘Options and Issues in Development Work’. The text of that handbook is available here on the website in the Resources section. To find out more about the group, visit the Options and Issues - Gallery or contact siobhan@comhlamh.org
