Project Description
The programme will offer a unique cross-border experience for participants by engaging in a triangular relationship with Inishowen, Co. Donegal and the Pireveere region in Estonia. This project will build relationships and networks between our Council area with regards to tourism, business, social economies, civic leadership and our youth sector for the years to come, beyond the lifetime of the PEACEPLUS Programme.
The programme will address the following key issues:
- The Programme will enable all participants the opportunity of perspective both locally, regionally and internationally.
- The Programme will create an information exchange in terms of looking and learning at how areas of community development and civic leadership are done differently across the three regions but that there are no less valuable.
- Sharing of Best Practice between the regional representatives in areas or tourism, business, youth sector and social economies.
- Understanding that different areas throughout the European Union, including our closest neighbours in Donegal, will always face challenges and obstacles irrespective of the political or economic situation.
- The development of sustainable connections created by the Programme that will outlive the lifespan of the Programme, to be regarded as a network of support and legacy.
By the end of this programme, the following targets will have been achieved:
- 230 participants recruited
- A minimum of 26 hours of meaningful engagement per participant.
- Hosting of an Estonian Visit
- Hosting of a Joint Causeway Coast and Glens – Inishowen Study Visit
