Project Details

Shared History Project

The Shared History Project aims to exploit the potential for mutual understanding, respect for differences and reconciliation through remembering. It also aims to build positive relations between all participants on the project from both Catholic and Protestant communities. There will be a focus on targeting groups or individuals within groups who have a role to play within their communities in tackling sectarianism but who need additional support to understand the processes involved. In this way the benefits gained extend beyond the lifetime of the programme. The programme will take 30 new participants to the International School for Peace Studies located in the village of Messines, Belgium on the site of the Battle of Messines Ridge where in 1917 soldiers from the Nationalist 16th Irish Division and Unionist 36th Ulster Division, who despite their religious and cultural differences, fought and died together on the same battlefield. During their visit participants will complete a conflict resolution programme accredited to OCN Level 1. Additionally, the Project will re-engage with 48 participants from Phase 1 to explore the theme of reconciliation in a tailored conflict resolution programme and work on a joint Legacy Project with the 30 new participants.
