If you or a representative from your organisation are interested in tendering for delivery of a programme please contact peace@leitrimcoco.ie to register your interest
The Leitrim PEACEPLUS Action Plan was developed after extensive consultation using a co-design process. The co-design and co-delivery of the plan will be overseen by Leitrim PEACEPLUS Partnership, which is made up of representatives from the Community & Voluntary Sector, public bodies and Leitrim County Council.
The Action Plan has 16 projects across three themes. The programmes being tendered fall under the themes:
· Thriving and Peaceful Communities
· Celebrating Cultural Diversity.
The overall objective of the plan is to promote a greater sense of belonging, equality, inclusion and peace for people living in Leitrim by providing opportunities for enhanced contact and understanding between communities, access to training and skills and establishing spaces and platforms for collaborative learning and knowledge-sharing. There is a particular focus on increasing and sustaining meaningful engagement with people from minority ethnic communities and from different racial backgrounds.
