Dreuchdan ùr a’ cur ri obair na h-Iomairtean Gàidhlig21d Ògmhìos 2010 Tha triùir oifigearan ùra gu bhi ag obair aig na h-Iomairtean Gàidhlig thairis air na mìosan tha romhainn, a’ toirt na h-Iomairtean air fad chun an aon ìre. Tha an naidheachd ga fhoillseachadh le Comunn na Gàidhlig (CnaG) is iad air oifigearan ùr fhastadh airson Iomairtean Loch Abair, Dùn Èideann agus Ìle is Diùra. Tha CnaG a cuir na h-Iomairtean Gàidhlig air dòigh ann an sgeama phìleat às leth Bòrd na Gàidhlig, agus le taic bho Iomairt na Gàidhealtachd is nan Eilean ann an cuid a sgìrean. ’S i Angela NicEachainn a tha gu bhi ag obair ann an Dùn Èideann; Rhòna NicDhùghaill ann an Loch Abair, agus Lynn NicDhòmhnaill ann an Ìle is Diùra. Tha Ceannard ChnaG, Dòmhnall MacNèill air fàilte chuir air an luchd-obrach ùr: “Tha mise gu math toilichte “fàilte air bòrd” a thabhann dhan triùir oifigearan ùra seo. Tha mi cinnteach gum bheil an dealas, na sgilean is na comasan aca cuir gu mòr ri leasachadh na Gàidhlig anns na coimhearsnachdan ’s am bith iad ag obair.” “Tha dearbhadh againn a-nis gum bheil e a’ soirbheachadh le na h-Iomairtean Gàidhlig far am bheil iad air a bhi stèidhichte beagan nas fhaide, is leis sin, faodaidh misneachd làidir a bhi againn gur e an aon sgeul a bhitheas ann an Dùn Èideann agus Ìle ’s Diùra far am bheil iad an ìre mhath dìreach air tòiseachadh. Ann an Loch Abair, tha cùisean air a bhi stèidhichte còrr is bliadhna, agus a’ dèanamh deagh adhartas, ach tha mi cinnteach gun tèid sin a nis bho neart gu neart.” Thuirt Daibhidh Boag, Leasaiche Canain aig Bòrd na Gàidhlig: “Tha Bòrd na Gàidhlig mothachail gu bheil na h-Iomairtean Gàidhlig gu math cudromach gus amasan a’ Bhùird a choileanadh. Bi na h-oifigearan seo a’ gluasad gus na h-Iomairtean a thoirt air adhart anns na sgìrean aca fhèin, airson àireamhan luchd-labhairt na Gàidhlig àrdachadh mar a chaidh ainmeachadh ann an Ginealach Ùr na Gàidhlig.” Tha Angela NicEachainn, a bhios ag obair ann an Dùn Èideann, air a bhi fuireach ’s a’ bhaile sin grunn bhliadhnachan, agus bithidh gu leòr eòlach oirre tron obair a tha i air a dhèanamh ann an saoghal craobh-sgaoileadh. Tha Rhòna NicDhùghaill, a bhios ag obair ann an Loch Abair, air a bhi na h-oileanach aig Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, agus obair a dhèanamh mar oifigeir taic aig buidhnean leasachaidh coimhearsnachd ann an Glaschu. Tha Lynn NicDhòmhnaill, a bhios ag obair ann an Ìle is Diùra air ùine chuir seachad a’ dèanamh obair leasachaidh an luib tallaichean coimhearsnachd an Ìle. Tha i ag ionnsachadh Gàidhlig tro chlasaichean Ùlpan is Cùrsa Comais Sabhal Mòr Ostaig. Tha seachd Iomairtean Gàidhlig a nis stèidhichte ann an diofar seòrsa choimhearsnachdan air feadh Alba. Tha còig ann an sgìrean dùthchail, leithid Iar-Thuath Leòdhais; Uidhist a-Deas is Èirisgeigh; Uachdar Thronndairnis, Loch Abar agus Ìle is Diùra agus dhà ann am bailtean mòra, Glaschu is Dùn Èideann. Bithidh gach Iomairt ga ruith le buidheann-stiùiridh le buill a’ tighinn bhon choimhearsnachd fhèin agus bidh iad faighinn buidseat-leasachaidh de £5,000, agus ùine oifigear leasachaidh. Tha na h-Iomairtean Gàidhlig stèidhte air modal a thogadh as a’ Chuimrigh. An siud tha cuid aca air a bhi dol faisg air fichead bliadhna, is iad air gluasad gu seirbheisean eadar-dhealaichte a thoirt seachad leithid eadar-theangachadh, cùram chloinne is clasaichean Cuimris. Bithidh iad a’ faighinn teachd a-steach bho gach cuid an roinn phoblach agus an roinn phrìobhaideach, agus tha iad uile a’ coimhead ris a’ chànan Cuimreach a neartachadh aig ìre choimhearsnachd mar phrìomh amas. Ged nach eil ach bliadhna bho thòisich na h-Iomairtean Gàidhlig ann an Alba tha iad mu thràth air buaidh mhath thoirt air a’ Ghàidhlig ’s na coimhearsnachdan aca le tachartasan òigridh is coimhearsnachd – uile ag amas air cothroman cleachdaidh, neo cothroman ionnsachaidh na Gàidhlig a chuir an cèill. Thuirt Mgr MhicNèill: “’S e an t-uallach a chuir Bòrd na Gàidhlig oirnn sa phìleat seo ach dearbhadh, le muinntir a’ choimhearsnachd aig an stiùir, a dol an sàs anns na prìomhachasan aca fhèin, agus le taic airgid agus neach obrach, an tèid againn air a’ Ghàidhlig a neartachadh aig ìre coimhearsnachd. Tha mise an dùil gum bheil fianais againn gu bheil seo a’ tachairt, agus gur ann nas fheàrr a thèid cùisean le na h-Iomairtean ag obair an compàirt ri na buidhnean Gàidhlig eile.” |
New Appointments Boost for Gaelic Initiatives21st June 2010 In the next few weeks, three officers will take up new posts with the Gaelic Initiatives, thereby bringing the Gaelic Initiatives staffing up to full complement. This was announced by Comunn na Gàidhlig (CnaG), as they make new appointments at the Gaelic Initiatives in Lochaber, Edinburgh and Islay and Jura. CnaG administers the Gaelic Initiatives, as a pilot project, on behalf of Bòrd na Gàidhlig with support from Highlands and Islands Enterprise for the Initiatives based within their network area. The three new appointments are: Angela MacEachen, Edinburgh; Rona Dougall, Lochaber and Lynn Macdonald, Islay and Jura. Donald Macneill, Ceannard of CnaG, welcomed the appointment of the three new officers. “I am delighted to welcome the three new officers to the Gaelic Initiatives. I am confident that the officers’ enthusiasm, skills and talents will significantly benefit current efforts in Gaelic development in the communities they will be working in. There is now evidence that the Gaelic Initiatives which have been in operation the longest are making good progress and we are quite confident that the same will be true in Edinburgh and Islay and Jura where the Initiatives are only just starting. I am certain that in Lochaber, where the Initiative has been in operation for just over a year, and where good progress is already being made, things will also go from strength to strength.” David Boag, Head of Gaelic Usage at Bòrd na Gàidhlig said, “Bòrd na Gàidhlig is aware of the importance of the role the Gaelic Initiatives have in realising the Board’s aims. These new officers will be pivotal in progressing the work of the Initiatives in their own communities, and increasing the number of Gaelic speakers as laid down in the Action Plan, Ginealach Ùr na Gàidhlig. Angela Maceachen, who will be working in Edinburgh has lived in the city for a number of years and is well known by many through her many years work in Gaelic broadcasting. Rhona Dougall, who will work in Lochaber, has recently completed her studies at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, and previously worked as an officer for a community development organisation in Glasgow. Lynn Macdonald, who will work in Islay and Jura, has previously spent time on development work relating to community halls in Islay. She is currently learning Gaelic both through Ulpan classes and also the Sabhal Mòr Ostaig Cùrsa Comais. There are now seven Gaelic Initiatives established in different types of communities across Scotland. Five of the Initiatives are based in rural communities, like North West Lewis, South Uist tand Eriskay, Trotternish Skye, Lochaber and Islay and Jura, with the other two in urban communities, Glasgow and Edinburgh. The Initiatives are run by locally formed and locally based steering groups which are provided with development budgets of £5,000 and a locally-based Development Officer. The Initiatives are based on the Welsh model, Menter Iaith. There, some of the Initiatives have been in existence for nearly 20 years and they have progressed to provide services like translation, child-care and Welsh learning classes. Their income comes from both the public and the private sectors, and they all have as their prime objective to strengthen the Welsh language at community level. Although the first Initiatives in Scotland have only been in existence for little over a year, they have already begun to make an impact in communities with many activities taking place for young people and for the community at large – all with the aim of developing opportunities for both language usage and language acquisition. Mr Macneill said, “With this pilot project, Bòrd na Gàidhlig wishes to ascertain whether community-based initiatives like this, with financial support and the support of an officer, can help strengthen Gaelic at community level. I believe there is evidence out there to demonstrate this is already happening, and I am confident the Initiatives’ work will continue to progress, working in partnership with other Gaelic organisations.” |
