The Social and Health Education Project (SHEP) – established in 1974 – is an Irish Community Education & Development Project.
We are a community of people inspired by a shared vision. In solidarity and partnership with others we seek to foster the well-being of people, families, communities and the wider web of life, and to contribute to the building of a more loving, socially just and sustainable way of living.
Our key areas of work include: a unique training programme based on experiential group work approaches; low-cost counselling; advocacy; providing specialist support to community based organisations, and international partnership.
We currently work in Cork, Kerry and Limerick in the south-west of Ireland. SHEP also supports the work of our international partner, Sahakarmi Samaj, which works in southwest Nepal.
