GFA 20 Years On: A Community Reflects

The Tánaiste Simon Coveney TD will be in West Belfast next Tuesday, 10th April, to deliver a keynote opening address at a Féile an Phobail event to mark the 20th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement.

The event, titled ‘The Good Friday Agreement 20 Years On: A Community Reflects’ will take place in St Mary’s University College on the Falls Road beginning at 8.45am, and will also feature keynote speeches and contributions by former Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams TD, former Women’s Coalition leader Monica McWilliams and former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, all of whom were Good Friday Agreement architects.

Kevin Gamble, Director of Féile an Phobail;

We are delighted that the Tánaiste Simon Coveney TD will be attending and making the keynote opening address, and that Gerry Adams TD, Monica McWilliams and Bertie Ahern who were all deeply involved in negotiating the Good Friday Agreement will be attending and speaking also.
