Momentum is a firm believer in lifelong learning and education, and a dedicated supporter of European inhabitants, businesses, industries, and sectors. At the heart of everything we do is the commitment to enable, equip, and support our diverse target audiences including youth, NEETs (Not in Employment and Training), students and marginalised communities. We strive to foster an inclusive environment where everyone has the opportunity to learn and grow.
We offer training, mentoring, and online learning, and have a solid reputation for innovative problem-solving, economic development vision, and the design, funding, and delivery of transformative projects and programs. Our initiatives are rooted in mediation and inclusion, ensuring that all voices are heard and valued.
Through our involvement in EU education and innovation programs, we create a significant impact by developing inclusive curricula and educational strategies for many of Ireland’s top higher education institutions (HEI) and vocational education and training (VET) bodies. Our focus is on breaking down barriers and promoting equality, ensuring that education and innovation are accessible to everyone. (more on Momentum)
