The Northern Ireland city of Belfast hosted from March 6th till 9th several events around Cuerpos Gramaticales, a project designed in Colombia by Agroarte collective and developed in Barcelona by ICIP in 2017 with the aim of generating memory practices that contribute to peacebuilding, symbolic reparation and recognition of civil society processes.
Maria Fanlo, coordinator of the ICIP program “Peacebuilding and promotion of coexistence after violence”, and Ingrid Guyon, photographer and filmmaker, have been invited by Beyond Skin to share their experience and project documentation with the aim of contributing to its adaptation to the Northern Irish context. The visit also served to learn about the #FUTyoURES initiative, a peace program between Northern Ireland, Colombia and the Colombian diaspora developed by Beyond Skin and Escuelas de Paz.
On the occasion of International Women’s Day, the delegation has participated in the commemorative event on March 8th with artists and peace builders from the Colombian community in Ireland and Northern Ireland. The program has been organised by Beyond Skin in partnership with ICIP, Agroarte, Cuerpos Gramaticales, Esculeas de Paz and Fotosynthesis.
