Mission statement

Our Vision:

Irish Peace Centre’s vision is of a shared and vibrant civil society where personal relationships are the cornerstone of peace-building and motivate the continued journey of integrated action in developing peace and reconciliation.
 

Our Mission:

Through an integrated consortium approach, Irish Peace Centres looks to embed reconciliation through peace-building activities and share learning experiences which endeavour to change attitudes and behaviours towards sectarianism and racism.
 

Our Aims:

To advance the role of the Irish Peace Centres programme in the Irish Peace process in general and civil society peace-building in particular;

To cultivate and sustain positive relationships at a local level, across the region and across traditional sectarian and new social divides;

To nurture a network of people and groups that will grow out of the consortium to foster new attitudes and behaviours towards traditional and new issues of conflict impacting upon future generations;

To recognise that peace-building is a journey of continual renewal and effort through which experiential learning can be transferred on a cross-community, intra-community and international level.
