Words Ireland is a grouping of seven literature organisations who have worked together collaboratively since 2015 for the advancement of writers and illustrators.

Words Ireland is currently taking a break from activities. Individual organisations should be contacted directly.

Past activities have included the development of professional development initiatives; the compilation of information sheets help writers advance their professional and creative practice; writers conferences; advocacy; and the initiation of the National Mentoring Programme. More recently, Words Ireland carried out research of writers and literature sector workers in Ireland, and ran a diversity and inclusion project, both of which will inform its its future activities.
