About us
What is The Psychological Society of Ireland? The Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) is the learned and professional body for Psychology in the Republic of Ireland. Since its birth in 1970 the Society has grown from a mere 17 members to over 4,000. RCN: 20016524 The PSI was established during a time when Psychology as a subject and a profession was in its infancy in Ireland. Since its creation the members of the PSI have helped shape and develop psychology as a science in Ireland and their work and commitment has given Irish psychology a voice and standing on not only the European but also the world stage. PSI is a hub for members who work in a diverse range of employment settings and specialisations. As well as receiving regular updates of PSI developments, publications, seminars, workshops etc., members can join any of PSI numerous divisions and special interest groups (membership based on qualification) to foster further interest in different areas of psychology. PSI strives to promote quality psychological practice and foster learning and growth, by setting high standards of professional education and conduct. Psychology is not regulated by statute in Ireland, and in 1988 the Society initiated its own non-statutory Register to promote high standards of behaviour, competence and practice within the profession. In addition to promoting a high standard of training and education for psychologists in Ireland the PSI provides its members with professional development and networking opportunities. The PSI has helped cultivate a high standard of psychology in Ireland which is visible in both academic and professional settings. These high standards provide psychologists who study and work in Ireland with the qualifications and experience that is needed to gain membership with the PSI.

Edible Landscape Project CLG is also thrilled with our recent #collaboration to measure the #socialimpacts such as #childhoodclimateanxiety alleviation and other benefits of ELP's #FoodForest Primary Schools' Programme, with the The Psychological Society of Ireland Special Interest Group in Human Rights & Psychology. Through this project the ELP is working with academics Dr Michelle B. Cowley-Cunningham, Dr Alexis Carey, and Elaine Rogers, whose 2023 paper - The Climate Crisis, Climate Anxiety and Children's Rights: A Psychological Perspective on Human Health and Security - addresses how the climate crisis affects children's well-being and threatens future generations' enjoyment of the right to the highest standard of health and security. We continue building #foodsystemresilience at the #primaryschool and #community level through the planting of #foodforests in Irish schools and communities.
