Launching Ireland’s First Public Relations DEI Report

Be among the first to explore new research on diversity in Ireland’s PR industry and hear how your organisation can take meaningful action.

PRII is pleased to share that the inaugural Public Relations DEI Report, a landmark study examining Diversity, Equity and Inclusion within Ireland’s PR industry, is set to launch next week.

Initiated by Harris PR and supported by the PRII, PRCA Ireland, and the Open Doors Initiative, this comprehensive report provides the first sector-wide snapshot of representation, workplace culture, access to opportunity, and inclusive practice across the profession. Research conducted by iReach captured insights from almost 500 businesses and employees spanning agencies, SMEs, and large organisations. The findings highlight encouraging progress in some areas while also identifying where further change is essential.

To mark the launch, Sonia Harris Pope, Founder and MD of Harris PR, will host a panel discussion with PRII CEO Laura Wall and invited contributors. Together, they will explore the key insights from the report and outline practical steps PR teams and organisations can take using the accompanying DEI toolkit.

This event offers a valuable opportunity to learn, share perspectives, and connect with peers committed to building a more inclusive PR industry.

The launch will take place at the Alex Hotel, Orient Suite 4, 41–47 Fenian St, Dublin 2, on Tuesday, 3 March, from 10:30 am onwards.
