Housing Ireland Conference 2026

In November 2025, the Government introduced a new housing plan Delivering Homes, Building Communities, which aims to speed up the delivery of new homes and tackle homelessness. The plan targets the construction of 300,000 homes, including 72,000 social homes and 90,000 affordable housing supports. Building on the progress of Housing for All, which has already delivered 137,000 homes since 2021, and informed by the Housing Commission’s work, this plan will see the State take a bigger role while also encouraging the private sector to play a key part in delivery. To accelerate progress, the plan includes regulatory reforms, tax incentives, and the largest ever investment in infrastructure in the history of the State – €275 billion over ten years through the National Development Plan.

Delivering Homes, Building Communities is a wide-ranging strategy that has two pillars as its foundation:

1. Activating Supply
2. eSupporting People

The challenge is clear. This Government’s single biggest priority is the delivery of homes. Achieving the objectives set out in this strategy will require a joined-up, long-term effort – one that brings together central government, local authorities, housing bodies, the construction industry and community organisations. In this context, the 11th annual Housing Ireland conference will host a range of expert domestic and international speakers who will comprehensively explore the challenges, and tangible opportunities for Ireland’s housing practitioners as they seek to deliver on this plan.
