Text
The Together: Building a United Community strategy reflects the Executive’s commitment to improving community relations between people from different political, ethnic and religious backgrounds here. Since 2013, a huge amount of progress has been made in key thematic areas such as shared housing, shared education, removing interface barriers and engaging with young people. The make-up of society is increasingly diverse, and we need to make sure that our good relations approach continues to engage effectively with all those who live here. Officials are developing a final draft of the review for Ministers’ consideration with a view to developing a refreshed approach to good relations and establishing what that will look like, building on progress to date.
