More than £3 million has been invested in projects promoting reconciliation in Northern Ireland and border counties.

The International Fund for Ireland has awarded £3.3 million to 17 projects which work to deliver peace and reconciliation work, including with communities who feel they have yet to experience peace dividends after the 1998 Belfast/Good Friday Agreement.
