  • Research on Use of the Irish Language on Radio
    Research on use of the Irish language on radio January 2018 Dr John Walsh, National University of Ireland, Galway Dr Rosemary Day, Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick 1. Introduction The Irish language has had a role in broadcasting since the establishment of Ireland’s first radio station 2RN in 1926. The founders of the state imagined that radio would play a key role in the development of Irish identity in nation-building (Watson, 2003; Pine, 2002; Day, 2012). Following the consolidation of the existing Dublin and Cork stations in 1933, a national audience could hear programmes in Irish for the first time, due to the introduction of a high-powered transmitter in Athlone. Although a separate service was promised for the Gaeltacht in 1926, a distinct station did not materialise until 1972, with the establishment of Raidió na Gaeltachta (Day, 2012). Some Irish is broadcast on RTÉ’s other radio stations but as a full-time national broadcaster, RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta provides the majority of Irish language radio broadcasts in the country. Following the introduction of the Radio and Television Act of 1988, the pirate stations that had proliferated during the 1970s and 1980s were put off the air and new commercial broadcasters were licensed. Irish was granted only limited recognition in the schedules of these stations that came on air from 1989 onwards. As a result of a campaign by language activists in Dublin, Raidió na Life was established in 1993 as a community of interest service to serve Irish speakers in the capital (Ó Drisceoil, 2007).

  • How Irish Communities Stepped up to the Mark
    HOW IRISH COMMUNITIES STEPPED UP TO THE MARK HOW IRISH COMMUNITIES STEPPED UP TO THE MARK STORIES OF IRISH VOLUNTEERING DURING COVID-19 STORIES OF IRISH VOLUNTEERING DURING COVID-19 STORIES OF IRISH VOLUNTEERING DURING COVID-19 Supported by the Introduction Volunteer Ireland believe that people can fulfil their potential through volunteering and that volunteering contributes to healthier and more resilient communities. Volunteering has the power to transform our world for the better and this has been evident more than ever during the COVID-19 pandemic. This collection of stories provides a snapshot of the immense positive impact that the volunteers of Ireland made during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 with the support of their local Volunteer Centres, Volunteering Information Services and Volunteer Ireland. Across Ireland, both informal and formal volunteering occurs every day with over 1 million people giving their time each year. Health, education, sport and social care all depend on the continued efforts of volunteers devoting their skills, time and energy towards those in need. During this national crisis volunteers were central to how we as a community stepped up to the mark. On the national volunteering database I-VOL alone, over 20,000 people signed up to offer their support. The range of efforts displayed within this document are a testament to their Meitheal. Behind the scenes, Volunteer Ireland and the network of Volunteer Centres worked hard to support volunteers and organisations throughout this time offering guidance, training and extra support. We hope this serves as an insight into the spirit of volunteering, its beneficial impact in our communities and the possibilities for Ireland if we continue to build on this foundation.

  • An Open Letter to Galway City Council
    An Open Letter to Galway City Council Let’s Change Our Streets and make walking and cycling safer for all ages and abilities during the COVID-19 pandemic Brendan McGrath Chief Executive of Galway City Council City Hall, Galway Wednesday, 6 May 2020 Dear Mr McGrath, We are a broad city-wide alliance of residents, employers and community groups, led by Galway Cycling Campaign / Feachtas Rothaíochta na Gaillimhe. We live, work, trade and shop in Galway City. We would like to begin a conversation with our Council to Change Our Streets to reallocate space to people on foot and on bikes during the COVID-19 pandemic. We are all working to re-open our society. Protecting public health for people of all ages and abilities is our shared concern, especially for vulnerable people, cocooners, and those with disabilities. The COVID-19 pandemic is the most significant public health threat many of us will experience. We would like to express sympathy with those who have died of COVID-19, their families, friends, and colleagues. To all who are ill, we wish them a full and speedy recovery. This global health emergency has required us to change our behaviour in many new ways. People’s environments need to enable them to change their behaviours to adhere to social distancing in the months ahead. Urban design is critical to this. Choices that the City Council makes can encourage these new behaviours we need to adapt in order to survive the COVID-19 pandemic. As advocates for people on bikes, we would like to offer our insights on road safety and urban design.
