ICSH Conference supported by AIB – Turning the Tide for Social Housing: Performance, Partnership & Delivery

 
The 2015 ICSH Biennial National Social Housing Conference, backed by AIB, took place in the Tullamore Court Hotel, Tullamore, Co. Offaly on 16-17 September 2015.

The theme of the 2015 conference was ‘Turning the Tide for Social Housing – Performance, Partnership and Delivery’. This conference was set in the context of the implementation of the Government’s Social Housing Strategy (2015 – 2020) and the need to address the huge level of social housing need that currently exists in Ireland together with the real problems facing homeless households, particularly families who need a stable housing environment.
