On 29 June 2023, the department published an Ipsos survey of 3,008 people on attitudes towards diversity and the equality grounds. The department contracted Ipsos to do this poll in 2022, as part of its review Review of the Equality Acts. As part of that work, the department wanted to understand public attitudes across all the equality grounds. Under the Public Sector Equality and Human Rights Duty of the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission Act 2014, the department is also required to assess and report on progress on equality goals.
Ipsos did this poll between 7th March and 12th April 2023.
The survey questionnaire was designed by IPSOS in conjunction with several Government departments and representatives from different civil society groups. These include Pavee Point, NDA, AsIam, Independent Living Movement, the Irish deaf society, National Platform of Self Advocates; Voice of Vision, Physical Impairment Ireland, Disabled Women Ireland; BelongTo, INAR, MRCI and the ESRI. In addition, several civil society groups were shown the survey and asked for feedback.
The poll will inform Equality Strategies and point us in the direction of where more work is required to combat prejudice against different groups
