The other division in Northern Ireland: public attitudes to poverty, economic hardship and social security

Rising prices and the cost of living crisis have had a strong impact on all our lives over the past year, but especially for those already struggling to make ends meet.

In this Research Update, Goretti Horgan, Ann Marie Gray, Sabrina Bunyan and Mark Simpson (Ulster University) use data from the 2021 Northern Ireland Life and Times survey to explore public attitudes to poverty, income inequality and social security.

T:BUC Good Relations Ambassadors Update Report 2021-2022

The T:BUC Good Relations Ambassadors Update Report showcases the work of the Good Relations Ambassadors Programmes.

It is the second to be produced by the T:BUC Ambassadors Working Group co-chaired by senior officials from both Departments that includes representation from TEO, Department for Communities (DfC), Education Authority and Co-operation Ireland.

The Group meets regularly throughout the delivery cycle and acts as a forum to share best practice, and provide opportunities for both sets of T:BUC Ambassadors to meet and participate in shared activities.

The Working Group represents a model for collaborative working between Departments leading to positive outcomes for individual good relations projects and collective Programme goals.

Feedback from the Ambassadors themselves is used to inform the future development of the Group, and the collaborative work between TEO and DfC is scheduled to continue alongside the delivery of the 2022/23 Ambassadors Programme.
