Brexit

On August 12th, 2017, ICR worked with Artist, Rita Duffy, on the “Softening the Border” project, in order to promote shared heritage and respect for all communities across Ireland, North and South. People were brought together from all corners of the island in order to artistically “knit” the border together in solidarity.

In addition, ICR’s Brexit and EYou project has contributed crucial research to the ongoing Brexit process.
