Seneste opdateret den Tirsdag, 08/09/2026

On 3 September, Minister for Education and Youth, Hildegarde Naughton, launched YouthMap Ireland, a new interactive online map designed to help young people, families and communities easily find youth clubs, services, projects and organisations in their local area.

“By making youth services more visible and accessible, YouthMap Ireland is another practical step towards ensuring that young people can find opportunities to connect, participate and thrive in their own communities.” said Minister Naughton at the launch of YouthMap Ireland.

Developed by the Department of Education and Youth, YouthMap Ireland is the first comprehensive national map of youth work and related services in Ireland.

The platform was developed with input from young people through consultation and user testing, helping to ensure that it is accessible, user-friendly and responsive to their needs.

It allows users to search for youth clubs and youth services nationwide and provides information such as service locations, contact details, websites, facilities and accessibility information.

The launch of YouthMap Ireland delivers a key commitment under Opportunities for Youth: National Strategy for Youth Work and Related Services 2024-2028, and aims to improve awareness, visibility and accessibility of youth services for young people across the country.

The map includes a broad range of youth work and youth-focused services, including Youth Clubs, UBU Your Place Your Space services, Youth Information Centres, Scouts and Guides, Irish-language youth clubs, National Youth Organisations, Comhairle na nÓg, and Targeted Youth Employability Support Initiative (TYESI) projects.

Traveller and Roma youth services are also included through a dedicated search functionality.

For the first time, YouthMap Ireland brings information on youth clubs and youth services operating across Ireland together in a single, accessible online platform.

YouthMap Ireland is intended to be a living resource. Arrangements are in place to facilitate updates, corrections and additions, allowing the map to evolve as new services emerge and existing services develop.
