Imagining inclusivity: The role of language in an increasingly diverse Ireland
Thursday July 1, 2021, 10.00-13.00, online
This workshop is designed to facilitate dialogue between academics, policymakers, practitioners, and NGOs in imagining a more inclusive Ireland, and the role that language plays in how we envisage this inclusivity. The event stems from the project ‘Languages, Families, and Society’ (LaFS) at NUI Galway, which uses an ethnographic approach to understand more about the everyday lived experiences families who speak Irish as a home language; Polish as a home language; and Kurdish as a home language, and how these experiences intersect with language policy and support (or lack thereof) at the wider level.
The event is organised by Dr. Cassie Smith-Christmas of Roinn na Gaeilge, NUI Galway and Research Fellow with LaFS. It is hosted by the project ‘Languages, Families, and Society’ (Grant no.: 794800) at NUI Galway, in conjunction with the Moore Institute and the Centre for Applied Linguistics and Multilingualism (CALM).
