GSI Research Strategy
We are currently revising our Research Roadmap and developing our new strategic plan for the Research Programme in GSI. This includes assessing our role as a research funder, collaborator and partner in geoscience and Earth sciences in Ireland and shaping our future research landscape.
In order to include as many views and opinions as possible, we would very much appreciate feedback from the research community. Comments are anonymous unless you would like to inlude your contact details for a possible follow up conversation to discuss it in more detail.
The survey will take about 10 minutes and comprises four sections:
(1) Profile of stakeholder;
(2) Geological Survey Ireland’s Research Roadmap/Strategy;
(3) Geoscience Research Funding Programmes;
(4) General feedback

(Please note, there will be separate survey for agencies/government offices, the above survey is tailored for researchers)
Many thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback!

Innovation 2020
The GSI Research Roadmap and Research Programme also supports the National research strategy, Innovation 2020.
GSI Research Strategy 2016
Our Research Programme was launched in 2016 and is supported by the Research Roadmap; this is an outline strategy and implementation plan to deliver the programme. The roadmap outlines our commitment to supporting excellent geoscience research. Our goal is to build capacity and develop a network of excellent geoscience researchers who will help address three of the key challenges facing society today:
- Sustainability and management of Earth resources (including groundwater),
- Risk mitigation for geological hazards (including geotechnical hazards)
- and Public perception of geosciences & citizen science
We supports researchers in academia and industry and will continue to develop these relationships further through our roles as a research funder, collaborator and performer. These activities will be strengthened by development of appropriate tools and methodologies to address the challenges facing us. We expect these partnerships and support systems to positively impact our economy and our society through better understanding of Earth systems.
