Good Relations Week 2024

Good Relations Week 2024

Good Relations Week 2024, will run from Monday 16th September to Sunday 22nd September 2024. It will deliver a positive message of togetherness as it celebrates peace-building and cultural diversity in an effort to eradicate sectarianism, racism and inequality across Northern Ireland.  The annual celebration will highlight the importance of local organisations working collaboratively and collectively to drive meaningful progress towards building a shared future for everyone. The theme for this year’s celebration is ‘OpportUNiTY’ which will shine a light on individuals and organisations working together and sharing ideas and experiences in tackling everything from sectarianism and racism to gender inequality, shared spaces, peace-building, and cultural diversity. #GRW24
