Description: For the latter part of the 20th century, Northern Ireland, officially part of the United Kingdom but sharing an island with the Republic of Ireland, saw violence between the nationalists (mostly Roman Catholic background) and unionists (mostly Protestant background). The Good Friday Agreement of 1998 sought to end this conflict, by establishing peace between these two communities and guiding how Northern Ireland should be governed. But even 20 years on, Northern Ireland remains divided. Yet, hope is on the horizon. Young students in Lurgan—a town of 25,000 south of Belfast—are using Survey123 for ArcGIS to record data across sectarian lines. After analyzing the data collected, the students from conflicting backgrounds find that they aren't that different after all. This is how change begins. Join the students of Lurgan to learn how youth are using GIS to make a difference in their community. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow us on Social Media!
