Funding Peace: A report on the funding of Peace and Reconciliation work in Northern Ireland and Ireland 2007–2017
In 2017, Corrymeela. in partnership with the Understanding Conflict Trust and Prof. Duncan Morrow of Ulster University, undertook a research project on funding for peace and reconciliation work across ten years, 2007–2017. Given the volatile political environment and the economic and social impact of austerity, we were keen to learn more about how groups who undertake peace and reconciliation work were navigating these issues. The full report can be downloaded below, as well as a short summary document. There are a limited number of hard copies that can be collected from our Belfast Office, 83 University Street, Belfast. For more details, contact Sean Pettis – Programme Manager – ‘Legacies of Conflict’ via email seanpettis@corrymeela.org or 028 9050 8080.
The research was funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade through their Reconciliation Fund. The views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade or any of the participating organisations.
