'A Shared Future' is founded on partnership, equality and mutual respect

The challenge of anchoring ‘A Shared Future’ in the organisational cultures within the voluntary, community and public sectors has been identified as a need in the Good Relations Forum established between NI Community Relations Council (NICRC) and the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland (ECNI).

To deal with this challenge the NICRC under the EU Programme for Peace and Reconciliation, Measure 2.1: Reconciliation for Sustainable Peace is funding the ‘Common Ways’ project to offer a range of courses.

‘Common Ways’ is linked with the UNESCO centre at the University of Ulster and is providing a range of short courses to those most directly undertaking peace and reconciliation work.

Who should take part?

These courses are a great opportunity for you if:

If you would like to kick-start learning cultures within your organisations based on reflecting on your existing practice and projects.
If you would like to use practical models that address the challenges of reconciliation.

Course details

This short course covers:

The Values underpinning a shared future
This course will enable participants to understand the practical relevance of the values of Equity, Diversity and Interdependence to organisational governance, vision setting and objectives, management and team supervision and practical community relations / good relations practice.
The practice of good relations
This course will enable participants to examine a number of available models of good practice developed in local councils, the voluntary and community sector and public bodies. This will draw on the earlier work of Future Ways, as well as other models of Good Relations practice developed by other groups and agencies.
