Welocme to the new IDEA website!

To celebrate the launch of our website we are inviting you on a treasure hunt … through the site. The treasure is the inspiring quote from Paulo Freire above, which is buried somewhere in the text on one of our pages. All you have to do is find it, send us the url (the weblink) and we will enter you into a draw for the fantastic prize of:

Send the url (together with your name and contact details) to communications@ideaonline.ie. Please share with your networks and social media friends.

Our new website will be an important tool in IDEA’s communication activities, helping us to illustrate Development Education, to showcase good practice , to share the great work of members and to bring development education to wider audiences. However, it is not just a pretty face: the new website will allow IDEA to manage our contacts, event registrations and payments, and membership applications. There is also a dedicated private members space where IDEA members can access members-only projects such as the Baseline Data Bank. We have a full searchable listing of members AND an interactive map showing the location of members.

A big thank you to Marc and Odran from Blue Bloc who are responsible for the design and build of the site.

We hope this new website communicates the vibrancy and diversity of the IDEA membership. We look forward to your comments and interaction online!
