The Inside Out Project (IOP) was established in Claudy as a targeted youth initiative, funded by the Local Strategy Partnership for Derry City Council area (DLSP), in 2004, through the EU Programme for Peace and Reconciliation. Inside Out provides a range of services, training, accredited courses, projects & programmes that aim to minimise feelings of alienation and marginalisation. Inside Out’s Vision is one of ‘An active and healthy rural youth population in Northern Ireland.’ Its mission is ‘To create, facilitate and promote opportunities for young people to work in partnership with adults to advance and realise the aspirations of young people living in rural areas.’ It will do this by ensuring that ‘Young People living in the broader Claudy area are connected, visible and have the means to make a positive and lasting contribution to their local communities in order to influence and shape provision available to them.’
