North West Peace III Partnership survey for Young People

The North West PEACE III Partnership covers the Council areas of Strabane, Derry and Omagh. We currently fund 60 Peace and reconciliation projects across the North West and are now consulting on needs and priorities for the next phase (2011-2013). This survey is part of the consultation and includes two parts. Part I covers your own attitudes and Part 2 will focuses on wider issues and needs in the North West for young people. You do not need to provide your name and the survey is therefore anonymous. Thank you for your time.
