The Special EU Programmes Body (SEUPB) are seeking your views on the draft content of the European Union funded PEACE PLUS Programme (2021-2027), worth approximately €1bn. It has been designed following a comprehensive cross border stakeholder engagement process, early last year that included 16 different consultation events, with over 1,000 people in attendance. Over 300 survey responses were submitted.
PEACE PLUS is a new funding programme designed to support peace and prosperity across Northern Ireland and the border counties of Ireland, building upon the work of the previous PEACE and INTERREG Programmes. The design reflects the importance of peace-building activity, but also the importance of actions that will contribute positively to the economy, building prosperity and adjusting to the new environment and challenges we face.
The purpose of this public consultation is to provide citizens, and other key stakeholders, with an opportunity to share their views on the content and administrative arrangements of the PEACE PLUS Programme, findings from the Equality Screening exercise and the Strategic Environmental Assessment.
To help us gather your views, the SEUPB will be using an online survey which was developed using an online survey development software called Survey Monkey.
Before making any submission please read the Privacy Notice and Consultation Information Document below.

The SEUPB will analyse the information collected in this survey and a summary of responses to the consultation will be shared with the European Commission, Member States, Government Departments (Northern Ireland and Ireland) and published on the SEUPB website. Your responses will be used as part of the process to finalise the PEACE PLUS Programme prior to submitting to the NI Executive, Irish Government and the European Commission for approval.
