Launch of the Leitrim Peace IV Action Plan
Tasting the “cross border” Boxty (Boxty from both Leitrim and Fermanagh) at the Launch of the Leitrim Peace IV Action Plan, today.
The €270m PEACE IV Programme is a unique initiative of the European Union which has been designed to support peace and reconciliation and to improve cross-community relations and where possible further integrate divided communities.
The eligible area for the PEACE IV Programme (2014-2020) is Northern Ireland and the Border Counties of Ireland (including Cavan, Donegal, Leitrim, Louth, Monaghan and Sligo).
The content of the new PEACE IV Programme has been agreed by the Northern Ireland Executive, the Irish Government and the European Commission. It has four core objectives where it will make real and lasting change in terms of Shared Education initiatives, Support for marginalised Children and Young People, the provision of new Shared Spaces and Services, and projects that will Build Positive Relations with people from different communities and backgrounds.
