In 2025, the EUConsult Autumn Conference for civil society consultants will be held in Dublin. The conference will explore how civil society/NFP consultants can adapt and lead in a rapidly changing Europe – addressing the key challenges and opportunities facing our clients today. With Ireland as our host, we will spotlight the country’s impact on the European and global stage in areas such as Philanthropy & Social Impact Investment, Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG), the changing landscape for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) and what ‘social partnership’ really means – who drives it and our role as consultants in guiding it. The conference also coincides with the 10th anniversary of Ireland’s Marriage Equality referendum, a landmark event where 62% of Irish voters endorsed same-sex marriage, making Ireland the first country to legalise it through a national referendum. The EUConsult Autumn Conference 2025 will celebrate these achievements and focus on the ongoing efforts required to advance social progress.
