What is an eForum?

An eForum is a practical way to enable people to share information and experiences. Once you are joined up to the particular eForum, you will receive the written contributions of your fellow members by email. This is an excellent way to discuss issues and learn about perspectives of others.

Partners Ireland is an eForum focused on health and development issues in Ireland and abroad. It is an independent eForum managed by Health and Development Networks (HDN). In 2005, the Partners Ireland eForum will support and facilitate discussions leading up to the Millenium Development Goals (MDG) Summit taking place in New York in September of this year, specifically in relation to development aid in the Irish context.

Following each broadcast, the Partners Ireland eForum invites comments and questions about the content of the programme as well as on the way Irish Aid engagement in these countries is conveyed.
