What is Public Participation Network (PPN)?

A Public Participation Network (PPN) is a network that allows local authorities to connect with Community and Voluntary, Environmental, and Social Inclusion groups within the boundaries of their administration. The primary purpose of the PPN is to enable the PPN member groups to input into and have their voices heard within the formal decision making structures of the local authority. There are currently 270 members of Roscommon PPN
