Arabic Language and Cultural Heritage Programme for Children in Newry, Mourne and Down

This is a tender opportunity for qualified consultancy organisations to design and deliver an Arabic Language and Cultural Heritage Programme. The programme will serve children from Arabic-speaking backgrounds, those with Arabic heritage, and members of the wider local community in the Newry, Mourne and Down area. Key programme components include interactive language-learning activities, storytelling, creative arts, cultural exploration, and educational workshops. Participants will develop Arabic language skills in an engaging, inclusive, and age-appropriate setting while learning about the history, traditions, stories, and cultural heritage of Arabic-speaking communities. Through shared learning experiences, creative projects, and cultural activities, children will build confidence, strengthen social connections, celebrate cultural identity, and promote intercultural understanding. The programme is funded by PEACEPLUS, managed by the Special EU Programmes Body (SEUPB). Interested organisations should register and submit proposals via https://suppliers.multiquote.com. The deadline for all submissions is 12:00 noon on 26 August 2026. Contact: Mrs Marie Ward, Chief Executive.
