Invitation to Launch of - TDDA Integrating Communities Programme

(Including a cross-border / cross-community discussion workshop entitled, ‘The Evolution of the Ancient Order of Hibernians and the Orange Order’)

 

Dear Friend

I would like to invite you to attend the official launch of Tyrone Derry & Donegal Action’s (TDDA) Integrating Communities Programme (funded by the International Fund for Ireland (IFI) and managed by the Northern Ireland Rural Development Council (RDC). The launch will take place on Wednesday 11th April from 7-9pm in the An GrianĂ¡n Hotel, Burt, Co.Donegal. Guest speakers from IFI and RDC will also be in attendance, with introductions from TDDA Programmes Director, Mr Albert Allen.

This programme launch will coincide with one of a series of discussion workshops which have been organised as part of the above programme. This is a cross-border / cross-community discussion workshop with guest speakers from Grand Orange Lodge Ireland and the Ancient Order of Hibernians.  This will be followed by an audience-panel question and answer session. Light refreshments will also be available.

The emphasis of TDDA’s work is on cross-community and cross-border issues related to peace-building and life in a post-conflict society. The discussion workshops are designed to encourage participation from the wider community providing an opportunity to meet, network, discuss and share knowledge and experiences with regards to the workshop topics. We envisage that participants will have a better understanding of the values and aspirations of Protestant and Roman Catholic Groups on both sides of the border.

Please RSVP (contact details below), by Thursday 5th April 2012 as booking is essential.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards


Stephanie
