We're Supporting Good Relations Week 2026
NICVA is proud to support Good Relations Week 2026 and this year's theme of INCLUDE. We invite you to explore our upcoming events, connect with others, and discover practical ways to advance inclusion in your organisation and community
Across Northern Ireland, voluntary and community organisations are leading important work to create more inclusive workplaces, services and communities.
To celebrate and share that work, we'll be showcasing a range of resources, articles, events and examples of good practice from across the sector, alongside contributions from our EDI Stakeholder Group.
We're also proud to support the EDI Stakeholder Group, which brings together organisations from across the region to share learning, identify challenges and promote action on equality, diversity and inclusion.
Throughout Good Relations Week and beyond, we'll highlight practical guidance, shared learning and opportunities to connect with others who are advancing inclusion in their organisations and communities.
We invite you to explore our resources, join our upcoming events, and discover how you can help build a more inclusive VCSE sector and Northern Ireland.
We will add further events, resources, and articles to the following, so please check regularly:
