## Summary

Derry City and Strabane District Council has completed the procurement process for the PeacePlus Muintearas (Belonging) project, which falls under the community action programme industry category. The contract, valued at GBP 108,558.41, is located in the North West region of the UK, specifically focusing on the Moor District Electoral Area (DEA) but also extending to other parts of the council and cross-border areas. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure method, with the award stage recently concluded and the contract signed on 6 August 2024. This project is a significant Irish language and cultural initiative aimed at fostering a more inclusive and diverse Irish Language community, challenging stereotypes, and engaging traditionally less involved identities.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in cultural and community services, particularly those with expertise in cross-community engagement and Irish language education. Companies like AN GAELARAS LIMITED, which won the contract, are well-positioned to benefit by contributing to this long-term initiative aimed at community cohesion and cultural enrichment. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with innovative outreach methods and experience in cultural projects will find this tender particularly advantageous for business growth and establishing a presence in the regional public sector market.

## Notice

Derry City and Strabane District Council invite suppliers to tender for PeacePlus Muintearas (Belonging). Muintearas (the Irish word for Belonging/Neighbourliness/Friendship/ Community) is a key Irish language and cultural project. Delivered on a cross-community basis, it will encourage a more diverse North West Irish Language community and challenge myths and stereotypes. It will have a strong focus on outreach and engagement with identities not traditionally (recently) engaged with Irish Language. Participants will access a menu of cross-community options tailored to their level of Irish, location and interests. Arising from the Co-design process in the Moor District Electoral Area (DEA), this project should strive to bring key benefit to that area as well as reaching out to other parts of the council and cross-border area. Please refer to the CfT documents for further detail.
