Trócaire’s submission to the Review of Ireland’s Foreign Policy and External Affairs

Trócaire's submission to the Review of Ireland's Foreign Policy and External Relations considers some of the significant changes the world has experienced since the publication of the White Paper on Foreign Policy in 1996 and the increasingly complex and interconnected nature of global challenges.

It recommends that policy be informed by a human rights based approach and environmental sustainability. High level political mechanisms for avoiding and or resolving incoherencies in areas such as trade promotion and human rights are identified as significant gaps in need of attention.
