This Is Me.
One city.
Many stories.
Real people. Real stories. Stories that matter in Belfast and beyond, told through video and photography to build understanding between us.
Stories worth hearing
In a changing Belfast, fear and stereotypes divide us. This Is Me challenges that by sharing real stories of overcoming discrimination through resilience, giving back to the community, bridging divides, kindness as a catalyst for change, and integration through shared passions - from Protestant, Catholic, Polish, Indian, Syrian voices and more.
The project
Through powerful portraits, audio narratives, and 10 rotating exhibitions citywide, we invite you to listen, reflect, and connect.
Replace myths with facts, build empathy, counter hate.
Listen
Hear real voices and lived experiences that go beyond headlines, stereotypes, and assumptions.

Take a moment to see the person behind the label — and question the myths we’re often told.

Find common ground, build understanding, and help shape a more inclusive Belfast.
Meet the people
Each story carries weight. Each voice matters here.
