There is a wealth of research taking place that is relevant to Irish cultural policy studies. CPOI seeks to showcase the research of its members and colleagues. This page includes research stemming specifically from CPOI activities as well as research within and relevant to broader Irish cultural policy studies.

CPOI RELATED WORK
Special Issue on Irish cultural policy in Cultural Trends. (Victoria Durrer and Kerry McCall). Since 1989, Cultural Trends has been an important space that brings together and showcases empirically grounded research on cultural policy with a particular focus on arts, culture, heritage and media. The critical consideration and investigation of cultural policy on the island of Ireland has long been missing from international debates and discussion.This Special Issue has presented an opportunity to review how researchers across different disciplines approach and understand culture as a distinct area of public policy in Ireland.
Special Issue: Exploring Cross Border Cultural Policy in Practice for the Irish Journal of Arts Management & Cultural Policy. (Victoria Durrer, Jordana Corrigan, and Ronaldo Munck). This issue outlines the importance of considering cultural policy on the island of Ireland in a cross-border context and reflects on learning gained from an event on the subject co-organised by Cultural Policy Observatory Ireland, the Social Innovation Network and Dublin City University at The Garage Theatre in Monaghan in November 2018.
We also draw your attention to the online event recordings for different gatherings as well as these thematic overviews from our launch event.
