Abstract
SUMMARY: Holiday projects have made a contribution to cross‐community relations in Northern Ireland for 20 years. During that troubled time they have evolved approaches which have increasingly featured contact between the children involved. This paper. bared largely on interviews with organisers and children on holiday projects visiting America in 1989, concentrates upon the essential follow‐up component arranged back in the Province. While some emphasis is made on the application of the so‐called ‘contact hypothesis’ to this area within the voluntary sector, the study reveals the challenge that holiday projects must now face in raising and handling controversial issues among children from different cultural backgrounds in a conflict society.
