Our enduring ties with communities in Northern Ireland have shown us the strength found in understanding and dialogue.

The recent violence is heartbreaking, and we hold all those affected in our thoughts. We stand alongside those working tirelessly to build peace and inclusion.

‘The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” - John 1:5

Easter offers a moment to reflect on resurrection as something lived, not only remembered.

In many contexts, it is seen in the quiet persistence of individuals and communities who continue forward despite ongoing challenge and uncertainty.

The act of rising is not always visible, but it is present in everyday choices, to endure, to care, and to remain grounded in faith.

From the entire FODIP team, to all those who celebrate, a very Happy Easter

In commemoration of International Women’s Day, FODIP is pleased to share key outcomes and invaluable participant feedback from our “Women for Togetherness: Navigating Civil Society and Politics Together” programme.

Developed in collaboration with Civil Society Together CIC, this pilot programme successfully established a network that brought together women from diverse backgrounds. Its core aim was to enhance their understanding, engagement, and positive navigation of complex societal challenges.

We extend our sincere gratitude to all participants for their thoughtful contributions and feedback. This input is instrumental in helping us continually improve and tailor our projects to effectively address the priorities and needs of our participants.

Wishing our friends, colleagues and supporters the very best and a peaceful 2026

As 2025 concludes, the team at FODIP reflects on a year marked by profound devastation, violence, challenges and division, yet illuminated by glimmers of hope as communities worked hard to find ways to come together. These sparks of solidarity inspire our commitment to rebuild the trust and communication in our communities. Our team has expanded, a testament to the growing need for our work, and we remain committed to fostering trust, understanding, safety, and dignity for all. With hope and determination, for peace and security in the region and for our communities here in the UK
