The Green Party Northern Ireland (Irish: Comhaontas Glas Thuaisceart Éireann), sometimes abbreviated as Green Party NI,[7] is a political party in Northern Ireland. Like many green political parties around the world, its origins lie in the anti-nuclear, labour and peace movements of the 1970s and early 1980s.
Since 2006, the party has operated as a region of the Green Party of Ireland[8] and also maintains links with other Green parties, including the Scottish Greens and the Green Party of England and Wales.[9] The party has a youth wing operating in Northern Ireland, the Young Greens. The party also has LGBT policies and an activist group operating in Northern Ireland, the Queer Greens.
