Limerick is reaching out to over 3.5 million people from and with a connection to Limerick City, county and region to invite them to be part of a Global Limerick Network (GLN).

The mission of the Global Limerick Network is to provide a platform for people from Limerick to meet, re-establish and build new friendships, to learn about their communities, exchange information, network, share ideas, and for any other purpose the members of the Network think useful.

Most of all, the Global Limerick Network will enable people living in Limerick and its hinterland today to re-connect to the large number of people from the region living around the world, thereby creating a global Limerick community of interests and mutual support.

The GLN project is being co-ordinated by Limerick local authority, supported by a working group drawn from the community in Limerick.

The Global Limerick Network online survey ‘Connecting with Limerick’

In developing the work of the Global Limerick Network it is central to gather the experiences and thoughts of people from and with a connection to Limerick city and county but living outside Limerick.

One of the values of the Global Limerick Network is to engage with people from and with a connection to Limerick city and county. This online survey seeks your opinion about existing connections to Limerick, potential for reconnecting and extending existing connections while living outside Limerick. The results of this short survey will inform future directions and priorities of the Global Limerick Network.

It is essential to the work of the Global Limerick Network to open and develop communication channels with people connected to Limerick and this survey is a mechanism to begin that dialogue.
