  • Wales Gene Park Education & Engagement
    2016 Wales Gene Park Education & Engagement Established in 2002, the Wales Gene Park continues to operate in a field of fast developing technologies and rapidly emerging opportunities for their application. Going forward into the second decade since the first release of the human genome sequence, we want to ensure that researchers in Wales are in a position to meet the challenges and opportunities presented by human genetics and genomics and that our health practitioners can use new genetic and genomic knowledge to prevent, better diagnose and better treat human illness. To do this the Wales Gene Park provides technology and expertise, trains and supports researchers and engages with and educates professionals and the public. This broad portfolio of activity is undertaken by an able and enthusiastic team without which the high standard of genetic research and education in Wales would be unsustainable. Education & Engagement Programme The Wales Gene Park delivers an innovative and continually developing annual programme of Education & Engagement events. Continuing professional development is provided for health care professionals through a range of conferences, seminars and workshops on all aspects of genetics. These events provide information about the latest advances in genetics to further the education and training of these professionals and keep them up to date with this rapidly changing field. For teachers, we provide continuing professional development on the social and ethical issues surrounding gene technology and research-based topics. We also have a Teachers’ Genetics Network with over 400 members who receive a termly newsletter containing genetics-related news and information. For students we hold a 6th Form Conference and a Genetics Roadshow on alternate years as well as organising one off events such the interactive dramas ‘Boy Genius’ and ‘Meet the Mighty Gene Machine’ and also consultation sessions and discussions throughout the year.

The regeneration of Cardiff Bay is now widely regarded as one of the most successful regeneration projects in the United Kingdom.[1] The Bay is supplied by two rivers (Taff and Ely) to form a 500-acre (2.0 km2) freshwater lake round the former dockland area south of the city centre. The Bay was formerly tidal, with access to the sea limited to a couple of hours each side of high water but now provides 24 hour access through three locks[2] . History Cardiff Bay played a major part in Cardiff’s development by being the means of exporting coal from the South Wales Valleys to the rest of the world, helping to power the industrial age. The coal mining industry helped fund the building of Cardiff into the Capital city of Wales and helped the Third Marquis of Bute, who owned the docks, become the richest man in the world at the time. As Cardiff exports grew, so did its population; dockworkers and sailors from across the world settled in neighbourhoods close to the docks, known as Tiger Bay, and communities from up to 45 different nationalities, including Norwegian, Somali, Yemeni, Spanish, Italian, Caribbean and Irish helped create the unique multicultural character of the area.

They link the analysis of tourism and sport to wider public policy and economic development debates, applying economic analytical techniques to sport and leisure in a novel manner and charting the development of new tools which enhance our understanding of the economic contribution of these important activities. A number of the papers contained here focus on the extent to which sporting and leisure activity can further regional and national governments' aspirations for economic development, and at what cost. Two of the papers refine economic impact methodologies to better account for the impacts of discrete sporting and cultural events or facilities, using a high level of primary input data, and placing of the results firmly within the local economic development context.

    Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru / National Assembly for Wales Pwyllgor Diwylliant, y Gymraeg a Chyfathrebu / The Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee Cynyrchiadau Ffilm a Theledu Mawr yng Nghymru / Film and Major TV Production in Wales CWLC(5) FILMTV10 Ymateb gan ITV Cymru Wales / Evidence from ITV Cymru Wales ITV Cymru Wales is pleased to contribute to the Welsh Assembly’s0 Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee inquiry into film and major TV production in Wales1. We hope our observations help to constructively inform the Committee on its scrutiny of the Welsh Government’s funding strategy. Our production arm, ITV Studios (owner of Boom Cymru), is the largest and most successful production company in the UK, making programmes for ITV’s own channels and for other UK and global networks. ITV Studios has teams based around the world and its sales and distribution arm has a catalogue of over 40,000 hours of quality television and film. Overall, ITV invests around £1 billion a year in programming, the vast majority of which is in original UK content, and the scale and reach of ITV can be of immense benefit for Welsh producers. However, as a commercially funded producer - and free-to-air public service broadcaster - ITV does not directly depend or benefit from direct public funding support for the programming it creates. The investment made by all the public service broadcasters in original UK content, has made television production a significant industry in Wales - and we welcome the Welsh Government’s commitment to find ways to best support the industry here. In both a UK and global context, we believe the industry in Wales has much to offer: a diverse range of creative and innovative production companies; a dual language culture; opportunities for economies of scale via “back to back” productions in both English and Welsh; large scale drama studios and technical facilities; world class performers and storytellers; a highly skilled workforce of technicians and craft expertise; stunning physical landscapes and so forth.
