Common Ground

Run by Springboard Opportunities

Springboard’s Common Ground event celebrates Good Relations Week by uniting young people from diverse backgrounds for creative activities, dialogue, and reflection on building a more inclusive, connected, and peaceful society.

Common Ground is a youth-led event created by Springboard participants. Young people attending will engage in a wide range of immersive and interactive activities designed to celebrate diversity and promote positive leadership. Hosted in Springboards Belfast City Centre location, the event brings young people together for a variety of creative experiences where they can explore what connection means between individuals, communities, cultures, and the environment. Young people will enjoy a range of engaging stalls and activities, including:

A collaborative art station where participants will build connection through creativity
A story-sharing space led by young people from a wide range of backgrounds, offering insight into lived experiences and encouraging dialogue
An environmental workshop, where participants will plant seedlings to be used in a shared garden, symbolising growth and care for the planet
A cinema space showcasing Springboards innovative peacebuilding work across communities
A music station featuring music created by the young people from differing backgrounds
Interactive discussion boards exploring how the themes of people, planet and prosperity relate to good relations and community life
