Request for Tenders for the provision of a PEACEPLUS Animating Shared Spaces - Louth Stories Through Art Project

Request for Tenders for the provision of a PEACEPLUS Shared Narrative, Storytelling Project

A Shared Narratives Storytelling cross border Project that brings together diverse, divided and often overlooked groups in society to hear their stories related to the conflict and to celebrate the insight and understanding their perspective and experience brings to wider society. Within this project there are four core elements that together blend into this cohesive PEACE building project namely Element 1: Building on the Aftermath; Element 2: Focus on Women; Element 3: Education and Young People Element 4: Ex-political prisoners and security forces. All four elements of the project must be delivered. The aim of the project is to bring about behavioural and attitudinal change in the participants. The project will enhance the capacity of 1,100 participants to form effective and sustainable relationships with others from different backgrounds (behavioural change), using the different art genres as the storytelling medium (film, music, song, poetry/prose, theatre and photography, education). The project duration is two years and the budget is €371,400 (VAT inclusive). The project will entail 10-20 hours of meaningful and purposeful engagement for participants (hours will vary according to each of the above elements). The project will promote understanding, encourage further engagement, strengthen integration and reconciliation, build cohesion with and towards those from different target groups (attitudinal change). Please see PEACEPLUS Guidance document for information on the PEACEPLUS Programme which is managed by the Special European Union Programmes Body (SEUPB).
