About the Organisation

Northern Ireland Environment Link (NIEL) is the networking and forum body for non-statutory organisations concerned with the natural and built environment of Northern Ireland. Its membership brings together extensive knowledge, expertise and experience to help shape policy, practice and implementation across a wide range of environmental issues.

NIEL’s work also extends across the island of Ireland, where it collaborates with partners including the Irish Environmental Network to address shared environmental challenges and support stronger cooperation, dialogue and evidence-led policy development.

About the Project

The Collaborative Horizons for All-island Nature and Governance Enhancement (CHANGE) project is a cross-border initiative designed to strengthen environmental governance and cooperation in response to increasing regulatory divergence and shared ecological challenges in a post-Brexit context.

Delivered in partnership by NIEL and the Irish Environmental Network, the project will support collaboration, consultation, data analysis and policy development across key environmental areas including climate action, biodiversity, marine conservation and freshwater management. It will also help create a stronger framework for cross-border environmental consultation and cooperation.
