Maintaining the necessary conditions for cooperation and cross-border lives

This project, supported by the Department of Foreign Affairs’ Reconciliation Fund, provides evidence on the levels and nature of North-South and East-West cooperation and relations among civic society organisations and local authorities on the island of Ireland, supporting efforts to engage with relevant policy and decision-makers in order to maintain the necessary conditions for North-South cooperation and to safeguard East-West relations. It will also ensure the ongoing provision of reliable and clear information aimed at citizens on the island of Ireland with cross-border lives, reflective of the changing circumstances arising from Brexit. One of the activities under this project is the undertaking of Quarterly Surveys on the conditions for North-South and East-West cooperation.

The Centre for Cross Border Studies is calling on civic society organisations and local authorities in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland to participate in this important quarterly survey series.

The information you provide will be crucial for our understanding of the extent to which the necessary conditions for North-South cooperation are being maintained, and how relations between organisations on the island of Ireland and Great Britain are being safeguarded following the end of the Brexit transition period.

The results of the quarterly survey series will be totally anonymised, and made available to all. They will also be used by the Centre for Cross Border Studies as it works with other organisations to protect North-South and East-West relations.

Get involved in the survey to help us ensure the necessary conditions for North-South cooperation are maintained, and relations between organisations on the island of Ireland and Great Britain are safeguarded.
