Who We are
Dubin Democratic Planning Alliance
THE DDPA.
The DDPA is an alliance, founded by Robin Mandal and Marion Cashman, supported by over 70 neighbourhood associations, communities and many individuals across the Dublin area. We promote housing and development that meets the needs of our society: sustainable and driven by social needs and demands with the participation of the citizen.
Democracy is at the heart of what we stand for and of who we are.
