Clare Can Harness Significant Opportunities Through Stronger Diaspora Engagement, Study Finds

New findings from the Western Development Commission suggest that Clare could benefit significantly from stronger and more coordinated engagement with its global diaspora, alongside other counties in the Western Region. The report, Connected Communities, Global Relationships, highlights opportunities to boost tourism, enterprise, talent attraction and international links, while also noting that much of the current engagement is driven by community groups and volunteers without dedicated resources or long-term support structures.
