Summary / Abstract (Note)The U.S.-Ireland Research & Development (R&D) Partnership has developed over several years, and today it is a vibrant partnership among the United States, Northern Ireland, and Ireland. It is an excellent example of science and diplomacy working together in a unique trilateral partnership.

When the Good Friday Agreement (GFA, also sometimes referred to as the Belfast Agreement) was signed in 1998, the partners to that agreement and the world hoped that it could lead to peace, stability, and growth for Northern Ireland and Ireland. All the parties involved hoped that decades of conflict could come to an end. The North/South Ministerial Council was established at that time to bring together leaders from the Northern Ireland and Irish governments to “develop consultation, co-operation and action within the island of Ireland.”1 Today, the GFA is still in place and much progress has been made. Now, in its sixteenth year, it remains the guiding document for the peaceful relationships across the island of Ireland
