Joint Forum

The Joint Government Voluntary and Community Sector Forum aims to facilitate open discussion of key issues which impact on and shape the relationship between the voluntary & community sector  and government departments & agencies in Northern Ireland. It also provides a mechanism whereby the sector can contribute to early thinking in the development of public policies which affect it. 

From the women’s sector, Patricia Haren, Director of Women’s Support Network is a panel member to the Joint Government Voluntary and Community Sector Forum with Siobhan Doherty (NI Rural Women’s Network) acting as the alternate member.
