Celebrate 25 years of the Good Friday Agreement with our deeply personal and intimate film series.
There is so much further to go but this week, take a minute to recognise this historic milestone in Northern Ireland’s story. Witness firsthand how the power of cooperation and Europe's mission for peace transformed a country, changed the course of history, and inspired the world.
Watch and share these powerful and moving stories with your friends and family. Let's lift the voices of the people of Northern Ireland together. #GFA25
