|  | 'Understanding Ourselves, Respecting Others' is a project designed 
for 11-12 year olds at Carrickfergus College. The project premise 
is that these children live in a predominately protestant area 
with poor interaction with other traditions, high socio-economic 
deprivation, sectarianism and inter-Protestant community tension. 
This highly participative project seeks to give these children an 
opportunity to challenge their own as well as other cultures and
traditions, whilst engaging contemporaries from different 
backgrounds. An appreciation of cross cultural traditions will 
help these potential adult influencers and leaders break down 
barriers and encourage a sense of responsibility for a better, 
peaceful future. |  |  |  |
