Town Centre First
We need to make our towns and villages liveable spaces with vibrant communities, promoting compact urban development to both improve health and wellbeing, and to provide a sustainable way of living.
Town Centre First policy will ‘empower communities to create towns and villages we want to live in’
Transport
The Green Party is working hard in government to achieve an efficient and sustainable transport system, including huge investment in public transport and safe cycling and pedestrian infrastructure. We believe this will help make travelling and commuting easier, tackle climate change, create healthier communities and improve the economy.
Transport
The Green Party vision is for a high-quality, accessible, sustainable, nationwide transport system, where the majority of journeys can be completed safely and comfortably by walking, cycling, or on public transport.

Trees and Forestry
This Trees and Forestry policy encompasses native woodlands, hedgerows, parks, and urban trees, in addition to commercial forestry. Trees are a special part of our natural ecosystem in Ireland, but their numbers have declined drastically due to human pressures. Trees provide multiple benefits for people, for the environment, and to combat climate change by storing carbon. Natural woodlands and hedgerows are complex communities that take a long time to establish, and therefore should be cherished.
Universal Basic Income
Universal Basic Income can be defined as ‘an amount payable to a person who is a permanent resident of the state which enables the person to lead a frugal but dignified lifestyle’.
