--CRÍOCH--
A Public Seminar celebrating 40 years of Raidió na Gaeltachta
The vision and role of RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta will be critically examined and discussed at a public seminar on Saturday 19 May as part of the station’s calendar of events to mark the foundation of the service in 1972. The seminar, jointly organised with Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge, NUI Galway, will take place in Seanscoil Sailearna, Indreabhán, in the heart of the Galway Gaeltacht from 10am-4pm on Saturday, 19May and the event will be open to the public.
Six academics from various Irish universities will analyse aspects of the station’s output and its influence on the Irish language community nationally and particularly in the Gaeltacht:
- Broadcasting and traditional music – Róisín Nic Dhonncha, Mary Immaculate College, UL
- RnaG and the creation of community– Steve Coleman, NUIM
- A community and broadcasting medium – Siobhán Ní Laoire, DIT
- Identity, self-confidence and our own community – Rosemary Day, Mary Immaculate College, UL
- Raidió na Gaeltachta and terminological dissemination – Gearóid Ó Cleircín, DCU
- Which most benefits the Irish language: cosmopolitanism or the nation-state? – Iarfhlaith Watson, UCD
The founding vision of the station and contemporary challenges facing the service will also be discussed by a panel of speakers who broadly represent the diversity of the RnaG audience with a view to an open, general discussion among seminar participants about future directions for Raidió na Gaeltachta. Invited speakers during the afternoon session include:
- Dónall Mac an tSíthigh
- Máire Mhic Niallais
- Joe Steve Ó Neachtain
- Seán Tadhg Ó Gairbhí
The talks and discussions at the seminar will be recorded and broadcast on Raidió na Gaeltachta later this year. This seminar is being jointly organised with Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge, NUI Galway and with sponsorship from the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
