Irish Social Science Data Archive
National funding agencies, such as the Irish Research Council for Humanities and Social Sciences, have provided funding for many Irish research projects. One of the terms of project grants is that, where the grant has funded a data collection effort, the resulting dataset must be made publicly available. This page lists the datasets that have been deposited with ISSDA.
