This report examines socioeconomic conditions across communities in Ireland. Using Census data, the study examines how potential barriers to social inclusion have changed over time and if disadvantaged communities are particularly adversely affected. Findings from the new research report were collated using the Pobal HP Deprivation Index and two waves of Census data (2016 and 2022). The report highlights both progress and challenges in Ireland’s efforts to promote social inclusion, showing a mixed picture of improving economic conditions alongside worsening health inequalities.
