The PEACE PLUS programme will contribute to a more prosperous and stable society in Northern Ireland and the Border Region of Ireland and will leave a lasting legacy. The programme will achieve this by funding activities that promote peace and reconciliation and contribute to the cross-border economic and territorial development of the programme area. It will build upon previous PEACE and INTERREG Programmes. Provision has been made for an indicative budget of approximately €1bn, including proposals from the EU budget, the Government of Ireland, the Northern Ireland Executive and the UK Government.
The PEACE Plus Programme will run from 2021-2027 and represents an excellent opportunity for Local Authorities and key stakeholders within the East Border Region to access funding for cross border projects which will make a positive contribution to the economic, social and environmental development of the Region.
East Border Region are involved in a number of project submission to the PEACE PLUS Programme and hope to be announcing their success in the coming weeks. One project that we are delighted to announce our recent success in is the exciting new PEACE PLUS funded Change Makers Project.
