Activity 1 – Developing a consortium
The project involves the delivery of four inter-related activities, with participants from Northern Ireland and the six border counties in the Republic of Ireland. Activities from all four work streams will take place across the region, and amongst both rural and urban communities.
Activity 1 is aimed at creating a strategic cross border structure for supporting the network of people engaged in cultivating positive relationships at local level. Activities include events, meetings, workshops, residentials and training sessions that will take place at all three centres within a cross border strategic plan. Consortium activities will also include network cultivation and support, promoting the concepts behind the work of the consortium and creating dialogue forums that enable a wider discussion regarding peace building activities.
This activity stream also includes a major outreach and facilitation programme to maximise and encourage participation of groups and individuals who may not have previously engaged with the Peace Centres or previous programmes.
