A short history of the Belfast Interface Project

3. 2000 - 2004:
Following the consultation process outlined above, BIP’s structure was changed in order to help BIP to become more accountable, more inclusive and more effective in supporting interface communities.

b) Management structure outline:
The project became an independent ordinary unincorporated association in 2000, with charitable status (charity reg. no: XR41089), managed by a management committee of fifteen (max) people.
Belfast Interface Project, as a newly-formed membership organisation, held its first Annual General Meeting in November 2000. This was attended by representatives of approx 25 interface community groups and the project’s first management committee was elected. The management committee aim to be representative of interface communities in relation to gender, community and geographical balance. The management committee have been democratically elected by interface community groups/organisations which are members of the project, with some spaces kept aside for co-options to address any resulting imbalance in terms of area, gender, issue.
