The Centre has been awarded funding for its Border People Fostering Labour Openness and Workforce mobility (FLOW) project.

The €1.3 million project is supported by PEACEPLUS, a programme managed by the Special EU Programmes Body (SEUPB).

From February 2026, the Border People FLOW project will support cross-border workers and employers to improve their ability to access opportunities and skills from both jurisdictions.

The initiative will:

• Enhance workers access to cross-border information and support
• Strengthen the cross-border capacity of advice services and support organisations, and
• Drive policy and systems change to meet the needs of a rapidly evolving employment landscape.
