Regeneration activities
Apart from developing the sites of Ebrington and Fort George, Ilex works in collaboration with a broad range of public and private sector partners in a sustainable regeneration strategy to exploit the strengths and opportunities of the Derry City Council area.
Integrated Development Fund (IDF)
Ilex is the coordinating body for IDF which is channelling some £33 million into regeneration projects in tourism, education, enterprise, enterpreneurship, arts & culture, built heritage and infrastructure.
North West Challenge Fund
In recognition of the importance of Arts & Culture within regeneration a total of £4 million has been earmarked by the North West Challenge Fund. £3.2 million is being spent on capital projects in seven venues in Derry ~ Londonderry and the remaining £800,000 has been set aside to commission a public artwork within the city. This will be the largest public art commission ever held in the island of Ireland.
