  • Designing and Implementing Neighborhoods of Learning in Cork’S Unesco Learning City Project
    DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING NEIGHBORHOODS OF LEARNING IN CORK’S UNESCO LEARNING CITY PROJECT Séamus Ó Tuama, Ph.D.1 Siobhán O’Sullivan, Ph.D.2 ABSTRACT: Cork, the Republic of Ireland’s second most populous city, is one of 12 UNESCO Learning Cities globally. Becoming a learning city requires a sophisticated audit of education, learning and other socio-economic indicators. It also demands that cities become proactively engaged in delivering to the objectives set by the Beijing Declaration on Building Learning Cities which was adopted at the first UNESCO International Conference on Learning Cities in Beijing (2013) and the Mexico City Statement on Sustainable Learning Cities from the second conference in Mexico City (2015). The UNESCO learning city approach lays heavy emphasis on lifelong learning and social inclusion. In addressing these two concerns Cork city is piloting the development of two Learning Neighborhoods. The pilots are a collaboration between the City Council, University College Cork and Cork Education and Training Board who will work with the learning and education organizations and residents in each area to promote, acknowledge and show case active local lifelong learning. This paper looks at the context and design of these Learning Neighborhoods. Keywords: Learning City, Neighborhood Learning, UNESCO, Cork Cork: A UNESCO Learning City Cork City was granted the UNESCO Learning City Award at the second UNESCO International Conference on Learning Cities in Mexico City in September 2015. A total of twelve cities were granted the award viz. Melton (Australia), Sorocaba (Brazil), Beijing (China), Bahir Dar (Ethiopia), Espoo (Finland), Cork (Ireland), Amman (Jordan), Mexico City (Mexico), Ybycuí (Paraguay), Balanga (Philippines), Namyangju (Republic of Korea) and Swansea (United Kingdom).

    Annual Report 2010 Contents Chairperson’s Forward 4 Niche Background 5 Family Health 7 Physical Activity and Well-being Initiatives 11 Therapeutic Services 13 Health Screening & Promotion 14 Arts for Health 17 Food and Environment 21 Policy Initiatives 25 Events 26 Quantum of Services 28 Company Details 30 Abbreviations Community Health Worker (CHW); Public Health Nurses (PHNs); Health Action Zone (HAZ); Revitalising Areas by Planning Investment & Development (RAPID); University College Cork (UCC); Health Service Executive (HSE); National School (N.S.); School Completion Programme (SCP); National Cancer Screening Service (NCSS); Cork University Hospital (CUH). Chairperson’s Foreward Niche community health project is delighted to present this 2010 annual report. The report demonstrates the wide range and volume of positive community health work that was undertaken through the year from lifestyle and fitness, to services for new parents, community food projects, assisting local people to access support services, arts for health activities and community promotion of the national cancer screening programme. This work has taken place through collaboration with the local community as well as successful partnerships with local and national organisations. It has been a challenging year. The people of the area are experiencing the effects of the wider economic situation through cuts in services, reduced welfare, and with fewer opportunities for jobs, and training. Niche, as well as other organisations in the area, has never been busier, the demand for services is high and the need to adapt and respond has been necessary to strive for better health outcomes. The pages ahead report on the work of the organisation in this year, focusing particular attention on how we plan and prioritise the programmes, describing the outcomes and benefits for the participating individuals and groups, the overall progress made in the year and policy initiatives undertaken and developing in the near future.
