Established in 1981, CWI (previously called the Community Workers’ Co-operative) is a national organization that promotes and supports community work as a means of addressing poverty, social exclusion and inequality and ultimately as a means of achieving social change that will contribute to the creation of a more just, sustainable and equal society.
In December 2015, the Community Workers’ Co-operative changed its name to CWI, continuing to work collectively to support and promote community work as a means of addressing poverty, social exclusion and inequality and advancing human rights.
The CWI is a membership organisation with over 800 individual and organisational members. More information about CWI can be found here http://communityworkireland.ie/about-us/
