The Northern Ireland capital, Belfast, is a city marred by a history of conflict and division. But even now, 23 years after the signing of the Good Friday Agreement which brought an end to the conflict, spates of violence still occur.

The Troubles – as the period of sectarian conflict was known – took place roughly from 1968 to 1998 between the mostly Protestant unionists (loyalists), who wanted to remain as part of the UK, and the mostly Roman Catholic nationalists (republicans), who wanted instead to become part of the Republic of Ireland.

Earlier in April, frustrations boiled over about Brexit and other issues, leading to riots and violent clashes in the city, with some scenes reminiscent of the decades-old conflict, even if some of the youths causing most of the damage were not even born at the height of the Troubles.

CGTN Europe's Andrew Wilson visited Belfast to find out what's been happening over the past few weeks and to take a look at what people have been doing within their communities and especially within the education system and with the youth, to maintain the peace on both sides and ensure a conflict-free future for the next generation.
