ICR's latest publication Policing Loyalist and Republican Communities: Understanding key issues for local communities and the PSNI is now available. The publication was commissioned by the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust. The report explores the current attitudes to policing within working class Loyalist and Republican communities in Belfast, and in particular, investigates how far the implementation of a programme of 'policing with the community' has met the expectations among residents, community activists and among members of the PSNI. |

ICR Publishes Segregated Lives |
|
ICR published the report Segregated Lives: Social Division, Sectarianism and Everyday Life in Northern Ireland in September. This report looks at the many factors that affect levels of segregation and people's experience of sectarianism which impact upon the daily routines of individuals across Northern Ireland. The report documents the finding of a seventeen-month study funded by the Community Relations Council through the European Special Support Programme for Peace and Reconciliation into the ways and means that sectarianism and segregation are sustained and extended through the routine and mundane decisions that people make in their everyday lives. |
