Dublin City Council (DCC) is embarking upon an exciting project to build the Dublin Bay UNESCO Biosphere Discovery Centre in the heart of the UNESCO Biosphere on Bull Island.
An ambitious yet sensitive design that creates a powerful place for discovery and learning the Centre will illustrate and interpret Bull Island, Dublin Bay, the world network of Biosphere Regions and global climate issues. The design and planning process for the Discovery Centre is ongoing, in particular taking into account the results of consultations and discussions in late 2019 and early 2020. It is the intention of Dublin City Council to lodge an Environmental Impact Assessment with an Bord Pleanála in the Spring of 2021 seeking approval for the scheme. Further consultation will take place over the coming months in advance of the planning submission.
