InEire research project survey: Anti-immigration sentiment in Ireland
The Immigrant Council is delighted to be a project partner along with the Irish Research Council in a new project, InEire: Towards an Inclusive Ireland through an Economic Assessment of Anti-Immigrant Sentiment in Ireland, which aims to advance social policy initiatives around immigration rules, employment schemes, and criminal code of conduct on racism while ensuring a peaceful and just society in line with the UN’s sustainable development goals.
Project background
Despite generally being known as a friendly country, Ireland has also seen a somewhat sharp increase in anti-immigrant sentiment, especially in the last decade, leading to rising concerns related to harmony and inclusivity in Irish society. The project aims to propose a comprehensive monitoring/assessment of Irish public sentiment towards immigrants in line with this.
InEire is led by Dr Muhammad Atif Qureshi, a lecturer in the College of Business at TU Dublin and a researcher with the Explainable Analytics Research Group. The project will involve academic collaborators Sandra Ruiz Moriana of United Nations Migration Agency (IOM) – Ireland, Dr Lucia Morales of TU Dublin, and Dr Arjumand Younus of Afiniti AI and TU Dublin.
Survey
On behalf of InEire, we are looking for people to take part in an online survey which will form a significant part of the project's assessment of migrants' experiences and natives' experiences in relation to immigration in Ireland.
The survey should take 10-15 minutes and we would be very thankful for your participation.
