The FUSE Project, which is developed and led by ABC, received a €500,000 award to be implemented at primary school level.

Social Innovation Fund Ireland announced the Awardees of their 2019 Children and Youth Funds at a special awards ceremony recently.

The 2019 Children and Youth Funds, which include the Children and Youth Education Fund and the Children and Youth Mental Health Fund, are designed to support projects addressing the most prevalent issues facing young people and children in Ireland today.

ABC’s Darran Heaney led the application for this funding which will be used to implement the successful FUSE programme to primary schools in Ireland.

Additionally, ABC recently welcomed PhD Candidate Paloma Viejo Otero to join the project team and implement this project.
