In their own words
“European Movement Ireland is an independent, not-for-profit, membership-based organisation working to develop the connection between Ireland and Europe. Founded in 1954, European Movement Ireland is the oldest Irish organisation dealing with the EU, pre-dating Ireland’s membership of the Union in 1973 by almost twenty years.”
