This event is presented in partnership with the Carnegie UK Trust.

In the year of the 20th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, it is an appropriate time to explore the wellbeing of Northern Ireland’s citizens, and the work being undertaken for future generations across all communities. Recent innovations of international significance include the wellbeing focused draft Programme for Government and the local wellbeing frameworks contained within Community Plans.

The international seminar will celebrate and reflect on the progress made in improving wellbeing in Northern Ireland. The event will feature the views of senior politicians, and stakeholders on the progress made in Northern Ireland to date, the current situation, remaining challenges, and aspirations for the future. The audience will consist of American policymakers, analysts, and other key stakeholders with an interest in learning from those with direct experience of improving wellbeing in Northern Ireland.

Speakers include Martyn Evans, chief executive of Carnegie UK Trust; Máirtín Ó Muilleoir, Sinn Féin Member of the Legislative Assembly of Northern Ireland for South Belfast; Sir John Elvidge, chair of Carnegie UK Trust; and Aideen McGinley, co-chair of the Carnegie Roundtable on Measuring Wellbeing in Northern Ireland.
