Young people of Ireland declare daring strategy to improve state of the nation
Samhain 20, 2012
Legislation for the X case, a referendum on abortion, and a new approach to teaching Irish are among a list of proposals contained in a declaration unveiled by young people at a presidency seminar on Saturday.
President Michael D Higgins and 100 people aged 17 to 26 convened in Áras an Uachtaráin to consider the drafting of the “Take Charge of Change” declaration, the culmination of a six-month nationwide engagement with more than 700 young people.
The process, initiated by Mr Higgins in May, also resulted in the publication of a report titled Being Young in Ireland 2012. The report formed the basis of Saturday’s declaration and reveals concerns about employment, the future of the economy, political reform, citizen participation and education for a full life.
In particular it highlights a desire among young people to see greater equality and a wider acceptance of diversity in Irish society. It recommends diversity training in schools and calls for the drafting of a Constitution which “represents all members of our society regardless of race, religion, gender or sexual orientation”.
Vision
The declaration was delivered before Mr Higgins, Minister for Children Frances Fitzgerald and representatives of various State agencies.
It states: “Our vision for Ireland is [of] a secular, inclusive, multilingual, confident State with excellent and universally accessible education, health and social support systems; an Ireland of which we can be proud on the global stage; a place where people, arts, culture, heritage, sport and the Irish language are nurtured and developed.”
It outlines a vision of community co-operation, active citizenship and a “place where human rights are valued; where there is an acceptance and celebration of all citizens and where all people have equality of access, equality of opportunity in society and in the State”.
Afterwards the President said “any president of any country in the world would be enormously proud of the presentation”. He praised the focus on social justice, education, and the promotion of diversity.
“If anyone is in any doubt now about the myth that’s going around that young people are disengaged, disaffected and cynical, well there is your answer,” he added.
He expressed his wish that the proposals got a real, rapid and positive response at every level of politics and within institutions of State. “It must not be a lost conversation, a lost consultation,” he said.
The wide-ranging declaration called on legislators to extend equal marriage and adoption rights to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. It also urged the Government to increase its engagement with the diaspora by extending voting rights to emigrants.
The young people called for reform of the Leaving Certificate, saying the points system and emphasis on rote learning failed to prepare students for “active citizenship”.
Inspiring
Ms Fitzgerald said the submissions were inspiring. “Having your voice heard and bringing about change are not easily achieved,” she added.
She praised the participants for making a positive start in attempting to bring about change and promised to “work with the Government and the President to make sure full attention is given to your findings”.
She said she would study the views with a particular interest in drawing on them for the young people’s strategy, currently being drafted, and would pass on relevant proposals to the appropriate authorities.
Yesterday youth organisation spunout.iecalled on the Government to take action on the proposals or “risk alienating young people further from the democratic process”.
Declaration main proposals
Adopt a dual approach to teaching Irish at Leaving Certificate level: the first (compulsory) subject focused on speaking, the second (optional) subject focused on literature, driven by foundation of Gaelscoileanna.
Legislate for the X case.
Develop social opportunities for the Irish language.
Make marriage equality and adoption rights a reality.
Legislate for absentee voting for citizens outside of their constituencies and abroad.
Begin a campaign by young people to promote active citizenship.

Sustain and increase funding to the youth sector.
Reform Leaving Certificate (hands-on class participation) and opportunities for lifelong learning.
Empower local government so our national representatives do not engage in parochial politics.
Provide dedicated classes in primary and post primary schools to educating young people on diversity, tolerance and acceptance.
Provide more funding for special education needs and broaden IT curriculum at second level.
Pursue a secular Irish State.
Reform curriculum at second level to include greater emphasis on political education.
Create a graduate employment scheme based on relevant skills (not Job Bridge).

Ceist na Gaeilge i gCáinaisnéis 2013
Samhain 20, 2012
Tá Comhdháil Náisiúnta na Gaeilge, an scátheagraíocht ar na heagrais dheonacha Gaeilge ag áitiú ar an Rialtas machnamh géar a dhéanamh ar cheisteanna na Gaeilge i gCáinaisnéis 2013, agus tacaíocht a léiriú don Ghaeilge agus don Ghaeltacht.
In aighneacht réamhbhuiséid a sheoladh chuig an Aire Airgeadais, Michael Noonan T.D., an tseachtain seo caite, d’éiligh Comhdháil Náisiúnta na Gaeilge, lár-chomhairle phobal na Gaeilge, go gcosnófaí na struchtúir thacaíochta don Ghaeilge atá tógtha le dúthracht an phobail agus le tacaíocht an Stáit thar blianta fada.
Tarraingítear aird an Aire Airgeadais ar an Straitéis Fiche Bliain don Ghaeilge, agus deirtear nach féidir go mbeadh rath leis an Straitéis 20 Bliain don Ghaeilge gan infheistíocht agus tacaíocht an Stáit. Tagraítear go sonrach don Chlár Tacaíochta Teaghlaigh agus don Phróiseas Pleanála Teanga, beartais Stáit a fógraíodh níos túisce i mbliana faoi Acht na Gaeltachta 2012.
Ag tagairt don Chlár Tacaíochta Teaghlaigh deirtear gur gá infheistíocht chuí a dhéanamh ionas gur féidir leis an Roinn Ealaíon, Oidhreachta agus Gaeltachta díriú ar mhodhanna praiticiúla chun tacaíocht leanúnach a thabhairt do thuismitheoirí fud fad na tíre a theastaíonn uathu a bpáistí a thógáil le Gaeilge.
Maidir leis an bPróiseas Pleanála Teanga, dar le Comhdháil Náisiúnta na Gaeilge go mbeidh gá le tuilleadh acmhainní agus tacaíochta, go háirithe acmhainní foirne, a chur ar fáil trí Údarás na Gaeltachta do na heagrais phobail a bhfuil cláir oibre dhúshlánacha rompu cheana féin, ionas go mbainfí spriocanna pleanála teanga amach. Deir An Chomhdháil gur gá go gcuirfí oiliúint phraiticiúil ar fáil do na heagrais phobalbhunaithe chun cabhrú leo dul i ngleic leis an bPróiseas Pleanála Teanga.
Cuirtear moltaí chun cinn san aighneacht i dtaca leis an athbhreithniú ar Acht na dTeangacha Oifigiúla 2003, leis an easpa foirne ag an gComhairle um Oideachas Gaeltachta agus Gaelscolaíochta (COGG), le hÚdarás na Gaeltachta agus le Ciste na Gaeilge. Anuas air sin, moltar gur cheart go dtabharfaí stádas carthanachta go huathoibríoch do na heagrais sin atá ag saothrú in earnáil dheonach na Gaeilge, agus go mbeadh ráta íslithe CBL le híoc acu dá bharr.
Pléitear cuíchóiriú na n-eagras Gaeilge mar mhír ar leith san aighneacht réamhbhuiséid, cuíchóiriú ar 19 n-eagraíocht Ghaeilge atá idir lámha ag Foras na Gaeilge ó 2008.
Dar le Kevin De Barra, Stiúrthóir Chomhdháil Náisiúnta na Gaeilge “Níor tugadh faoi aon taighde ar obair na n-eagras sa tréimhse cheithre bliana ó cuireadh tús leis an gcuíchóiriú. Fad is atáimid ag fanacht ar an atheagar maoinithe, tá ciorruithe móra á gcur i bhfeidhm ar bhuiséid bhliantúla na n-eagraíochtaí de réir a chéile”.
Agus múnla nua maoinithe le cur faoi bhráid na Comhairle Aireachta Thuaidh/Theas ar 12 Nollaig 2012, seachtain tar éis fógairt na Cáinaisnéise 2013, deir De Barra, “Éilímid go gcuirfí na hacmhainní cuí ar fáil sa bhliain 2013 chun tógáil ar an dea-obair atá á cur i gcrích ag earnáil dheonach na Gaeilge le blianta fada. Nílimid i gcoinne athruithe, ach is gá go gcruthófaí go mbeidh pé athruithe a mholtar chun leas na Gaeilge”.
Is féidir íoslódáil a dhéanamh ar aighneacht réamhbhuiséid na Comhdhála ag an nasc thíos: Aighneacht Réamhbhuiséid.

CORE – simply the best Course
Samhain 19, 2012
The CORE project uses systematic, qualitative methods of action-research to investigate the implementation of CLIL (Content and Language Integrated
Learning) “on the ground” in primary and secondary schools within a variety of socio-linguistic contexts in five European countries. We give a particular emphasis to multi-lingual and officially bi-lingual regions. We complement current and often “top-down” theory and practice with a “bottom-up” exploration of “what works where, and why”.
The result will be an innovative, practitioner-led integration of core CLIL principles into a self-sustainable and perpetually renewable state-of-the-art training and support programme for the local management of CLIL innovation by school leaders and other senior managers using the resources of their local educational networks.
The project will draw upon the knowledge and experience of the educational advisors in its team in the organizational theory and practice of innovation management, and the use of AfL (Assessment for Learning) as a student-centered mechanism for the local evaluation of CLIL programmes
Interested partners should apply to their National Agency for funding before 16th Jan 2013.
