Cork Community Land Trust IS A NEW CLT FOR CORK CITY!
A CLT is a democratic, community-led organisation which owns and / or controls land and other assets, using them for the benefit of the community.
Incorporated in January 2025, the goal of Cork Community Land Trust (CCLT) is to develop a democratic, fair, inclusive, community organisation that provides a structure for local communities to develop affordable, sustainable homes as well as social, cultural and ecological spaces.
We will be everyone who lives, works or has an interest in supporting a Community Land Trust in Cork City and who want to join. We hope this includes you.
WHAT DOES CLT MEAN?
COMMUNITY
CLTs are organised around a place, and anyone who lives or works there can join and democratically participate.
LAND
CLTs take ownership of land, removing it from the market place and stewarding it on behalf of the local community.
TRUST
CLTs prioritise the wellbeing of the local community, safeguarding purposes like permanently affordable housing or the preservation of natural habitats.
