North Belfast Challenges In essence .... North Belfast encapsulates many of the problems facing Northern Ireland as a whole. Five features stand out: 1. its loss of industry -- in terms of its textile mills, tobacco production, and dockland activity -- has been severe. It operates now without a dynamic economic base; 2. in turn, this relates to a severe and durable pattern of multiple deprivation; 3. its degree of residential segregation, both social and religious, has created an intricate pattern of small enclaves that render contact across divides problematic; 4. its witness to a disproportionate share of violence during the Troubles, with related legacy issues; and so-called ‘leftover’ paramilitary activity, together with contemporary hate crime also directed to an increased presence of other ethnic groups, mark it out as a place of bitter contest; and 5. there is a very tight electoral contest between Sinn Fein and the DUP, with implications for how any new housing allocations are seen in terms of shifting this knife-edge electoral arithmetic. If a radical solution could be found to the challenges associated with these inter-connected conditions in North Belfast, it could point the way for the wider region. 1 2 Making Space for Each Other: North Belfast The Challenges Whose Boundary? The first challenge is to define North Belfast. Various agencies adopt different These include: historic concentration of Troubles-related violence, particularly geographies. Since territory and identity are very much tied up in this deeply in the form of sectarian killing; multiple, largely single-identity enclaves, with a divided part of the city, boundaries matter a great deal. Lack of common definition record of incident and confrontation; and the post-1998 residue of ‘paramilitary’ makes for a problematic spatial unit of analysis, and public policy intervention. intervention either as the physical force ideology of a section of republicanism or the criminal substructure that forms a prominent part of contemporary For instance, when estimating levels of housing stress between people from the loyalism. Far from supporting what they presume to be their ‘own communities’, two main community backgrounds, the figures depend on where the boundary both these manifestations of enduring ‘paramilitarism’ impose further harm on is drawn. already bereft people. Moreover, small divided geographical communities do not have the ‘critical North Belfast thus represents a microcosm of some of the biggest challenges mass’ to sustain any kind of sustainable development. So, viable public policy faced by the region as a whole and exhibits the unforeseen consequences of has to present the issues on a scale sufficiently large to permit appropriate urban programmes that fail to grasp the complex and contradictory interplay development but also small enough to be able to properly monitor and judge amongst deeply seated social, political and ethno-religious processes. results. On these terms, North Belfast (with a population of roughly 75,000) is appropriate for study and intervention. It has been subject to the ‘Zone Culture’ (Enterprise, Health Action and latterly Education) and littered with partnerships which do not have the means to But, it makes it difficult to develop a common North Belfast ‘voice’, when it’s deliver meaningful co-production/integration of a range of services. unclear who is being included. For the purposes of this study, we have mostly used the North Belfast parliamentary constituency. (For more detail, see Examining the place in detail suggests most of all, that repackaging old Appendix 1.1. on the website) programmes with new labels will not cut it as a serious attempt to transform the area. It is thus worthy of a new conversation about how its many problems should be tackled. A Troubled Area People and Place Although ideally situated (rising from the shores of a sea lough to a striking Belfast is a compact, modestly-sized city, which has not been growing at the same basalt ridge), North Belfast not only shares many of the problems of the less level as similar cities in Britain. Between 1971-2011, it lost about one third of its buoyant urban areas of the UK – loss of a traditional industrial base, spatial residential population. Seen in that context, North Belfast itself is a small area. concentrations of deprivation, relatively low educational attainment, and the With this in mind, dividing the area further into a series of communities, many graveyard of many programmes targeted at the most deprived areas – but also single-identity, for the purposes of ‘community regeneration’ poses two main exhibits specific problem characteristics of its own. problems: 3 4 Making Space for Each Other: North Belfast The Challenges The Thorny Housing Issue (1) the areas concerned are too small to offer the scale and scope for major development; and (2) given that the working class areas are mostly segregated on the basis of ethno-nationalist allegiance, the risk of rivalry for scarce urban resources becoming part of the general conflict around territory and identity is both immense and unhelpful. Although North Belfast’s population appears to be relatively stable (a small decline in numbers and a marginal increase of smaller-sized households from 2001-2011), the headline figure conceals significant changes. For example, those of Catholic Community Background (CCB) became the majority (52.6%). But, more than a majority, the CCB population is younger (possibly assisted by inward migration from post-2003 EU states) with more than half (51%) aged under 40. Conversely, a much higher proportion of those of Protestant Community Background (PCB) is aged over 65. (see Appendix 1.2 on the website) North Queen Street Thus, North Belfast has seen a younger, more buoyant Catholic-background Related to this demographic

  • Community Relations Funding Through Local Councils in Northern Ireland
    Research and Information Service Briefing Paper Paper 130/14 28 November 2014 NIAR 716-14 Michael Potter and Anne Campbell Community Relations Funding through Local Councils in Northern Ireland 1 Introduction This paper briefly outlines community relations1 funding for groups through local councils in Northern Ireland in the context of the inquiry by the Committee for the Office of the First Minister and deputy First Minister into the Together: Building a United Community strategy2. The paper is a supplement to a previous paper, Community Relations Funding in Northern Ireland3. It is not intended to detail all community relations activities of local councils, but a summary is given of how funding originating in the Office of the First Minister and deputy First Minster (OFMdFM) is used for grants to local organisations. 1 It is not within the scope of this paper to discuss terminology in relation to this area. The term ‘community relations’ has tended to be replaced by ‘good relations’ in many areas, although both terms are still in use in various contexts. ‘Community relations’ is used here for simplicity and does not infer preference. 2 ‘Inquiry into Building a United Community’, Committee for OFMdFM web pages, accessed 2 October 2014: http://www.niassembly.gov.uk/Assembly-Business/Committees/Office-of-the-First-Minister-and-deputy-First- Minister/Inquiries/Building-a-United-Community/. 3 Research and Information Service Briefing Paper 99/14 Community Relations Funding in Northern Ireland, 9 October 2014: http://www.niassembly.gov.uk/Documents/RaISe/Publications/2014/ofmdfm/9914.pdf.

They have been used in this report: PUL Protestant Unionist Loyalist CNR Catholic Nationalist Republican Removal of a Peace Wall on Crumlin Road in 2016. – 2 – Foreword Today, almost 50 years since the first Peace Wall was built, more than 100 physical structures remain as visible symbols of continued division and segregation. The IFI Peace Walls Programme is currently working with local communities impacted by approximately 66 of these barriers. There should be no place for physical separation barriers in a truly reconciled society but we have not yet reached that stage and, given that the risks associated with barrier removal processes lie almost exclusively with those residents and communities most impacted by their presence, it is right that we prioritise their views and concerns while supporting them to bring about positive change if and when they decide the time is right. The vast majority of physical barriers are located within communities that have suffered disproportionately during the conflict. These interface areas continue to endure high levels of multiple deprivation including educational under-achievement, mental and physical health inequalities, inadequate facilities, poor delivery of public services, physical blight and neglect.

  • Restoring the 'Mam'
    Restoring the ‘Mam’: Archives, Access and Research into Women’s Pasts in Wales MANDI O’NEILL The history of Welsh people has often been camouflaged in British history yet women have been rendered inconspicuous within their own Welsh history.1 t has been suggested that ‘Welsh women are culturally invisible’2 in a country which has had a predominantly male workforce in its modern history which resulted in a strong cultural identity around I 3 rugby and male voice choirs which excluded women. Welsh women were strongly identified with the domestic sphere and have been represented as a sort of nostalgic, idealised mother: the ‘mam’, the matriarch of the home, waging a constant battle, often in the face of economic deprivation, to keep her home and family clean and well-fed, often at the expense of her own health. ‘Cleanliness is next to godliness’, Public History Review Vol 18 (2011): 47–64 © UTSePress and the author Public History Review | O’Neill could have been her mantra: her reputation – which was all-important – was one of hard work, thrift and piety. Rarely, if ever, working outside the home, social activities revolved around the chapel. Pubs and politics were for the men.4 Government statistics have tended to reinforce the somewhat homogenous, domestic view of Welsh women. In the mid interwar period, only twenty-one percent of women in Wales were recorded as economically active5 although oral history interviews reveal that women did take on additional work, often in the home, to supplement family income.6 While the idealised ‘mam’ is rooted firmly in the coalmining communities of the South Wales Valleys, there were plenty of women in urban areas such as Cardiff and Swansea and large parts of rural Wales who did not conform to this image.

The achievement of shared government in 2007 symbolized a new departure in political co-operation and the culmination of years of difficult negotiation. In spite of many setbacks, there has been clear and measurable progress away from hostility and towards partnership and a new basis for living and working together. It is clear, however, that political agreement has not magically resolved all of our remaining problems. The legacy of conflict and violence is a long one. This is especially true in those areas where conflict was most acute. Whereas people living in districts where conflict was an unusual, sporadic or distant experience have often embraced the benefits of peace with relief, trust is not easily won in the face of recent memory of bereavement, anger and fear. One of the legacies of conflict is that many of the areas most traumatized and shaped by conflict are also among the poorest.
