Project Overview
Navigating the challenges in cross-border cooperation

ICBAN has been delivering a number of innovative projects with support from the Department of Foreign Affairs’ Reconciliation Fund. These include; good relations and engagements with communities, the impacts of BREXIT on the region, and regional strategic development.
These initiatives enable ICBAN and stakeholders to focus on the challenges of a changing environment. The projects promote peace and reconciliation and help build positive linkages between both jurisdictions on the island. They each focus on particular macro-challenges such as climate change, Brexit, economic shocks and political changes, and which require organisations such as ICBAN to react and respond accordingly.
Our current project is:
ICBAN Operational Costs, 2022-2026
ICBAN has received awards across annual funding rounds to help towards the organisation’s operational costs. These contributions have enhanced and strengthened the cross-border partnership’s existing and new activities, operations and interests. These are enabled to develop and thrive through a more proactive delivery of resources focusing on engaging and developing relationships, networks and connections on an East-West as well as North-South basis.
