Good Relations week is is a fantastic platform to showcase the good work that organisations in our City and district may be doing in the area of community relations and cultural awareness.
This year Good Relations week will from Monday 16 to Sunday 22 September and the theme of the week is ‘People Making Change for Peace’ which focus on ordinary people who are actually pretty remarkable. They don’t live their lives in the spotlight with a desire to stand out, but are driven by quite the opposite: a desire to fulfill their peacebuilding passion, embracing the energy that building united communities together gives them.
Currently the Good Relations team have a funding opportunity to support groups to run an event during this week. Events can include e.g. workshops, training events, launches, music events, showcases of work, public events, private events etc. that have a focus on good relations, cultural awareness, inclusion etc.
This week will also coincide with Culture Night which is taking place across the City and district on Friday 20 September 19.
