You may have noticed our #BrandNew logo and website? Following our 50th anniversary and conference last year, this new look signifies the beginning of the next chapter for NESC Ireland. What makes up a brand? As it turns out, a lot more than we thought! We were assisted in this work by Idea Dublin, who have put together this short video giving an insight into the core values that drive our work, and which are now reflected in our new branding. This video also showcases some of the detail involved in the thinking behind our brand overhaul, such as the ways our name and logo will be utilised going forward. Our hope is that this will assist us even more in spreading our work advising on Ireland’s social, economic, and environmental development. Additionally, to commemorate our 50th birthday a book with a collection of insights and reflections from the NESC@50 conference will be published in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out for that! #NESC50 #BrandNew

NEW NESC REPORT NO.166 "BOOSTING IRELAND'S HOUSING SUPPLY: MODERN METHODS OF CONSTRUCTION" Today NESC Ireland publishes "Boosting Ireland's Housing Supply: Modern Methods of Construction", a new Council Report evaluating the benefits of #MMC in the Irish housing sector - read it for yourself here: https://shorturl.at/DDLBP Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) describes the processes by which building components are manufactured offsite and subsequently transported to be assembled onsite into homes and places to live. This Report identifies MMC as having the potential to increase Ireland’s housing supply while simultaneously helping meet the climate goal of decarbonising our built environment. The Report argues for an increase in targets and funding for new public housing using MMC, under an expanded Social Housing Accelerated Delivery Programme (ADP). Additional funding is also required for dedicated apprenticeship and internship options, in order to facilitate further upskilling for MMC roles. Find out more about MMC by clicking the link to NESC's new Council Report, "Boosting Ireland's Housing Supply: Modern Methods of Construction", right here: https://shorturl.at/DDLBP #NESC50 #ThrivingIreland

NEW NESC REPORT PUBLISHED TODAY: https://shorturl.at/NAC3K Today NESC Ireland publishes Council Report No.165: 'Towards a National Better Work Strategy', which highlights how the concept of #BetterWork can deepen economic & social resilience by providing benefits to employees, employers and the wider economy and society. #BetterWork is a multi-dimensional, evolving and context-specific concept, but it is primarily concerned with improving the quality of work across all sectors of the economy. #BetterWork also provides an effective framework for responding to the opportunities and challenges posed by AI’s impact on the labour market. Progressing #BetterWork and realising its potential requires the adoption of a balanced and collaborative national strategy, comprised of an integrated set of actions across several policy areas. Key recommendations arising from such a strategy would include the creation of sectoral taskforces, a comprehensive & coordinated programme of research generating robust & timely evidence to support #BetterWork, and a strategic focus on workplace innovation as a vehicle for improving skills. To read more about how this #BetterWork strategy can be implemented going forward, please click the following link to our new Council Report, ''Towards a National Better Work Strategy': https://shorturl.at/NAC3K
