Building trust in divided communities: share experience of EU PEACE Programme

The PEACE programme is covered by the Structural Funds. Today's regional policy is an instrument to deliver the EU's ambitions – contributing to the creation of jobs, growth and peace. It is a tribute to those who have worked on the PEACE programmes. The event took place in Brussels on 31/1/2013.
