Is there more to Gaelic development than a talking point for academic debate<\/a> or social media clickbait<\/a>? How can island voices be heard in discussions and decisions about the language they speak? The “Gaelic Crisis<\/a>” book has stimulated a re-appraisal of the current situation, and makes suggestions for a new way forward.<\/p>\n

A series of “GAELIC CONVERSATIONS – C\u00d2MHRAIDHEAN G\u00c0IDHLIG<\/a>” is proposed around the islands.<\/p>\n

“Alasdair Allan MSP is working with the authors of the study from the Soillse research team based at the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) and a cross-party group of MSPs and researchers including Kate Forbes MSP, Michael Russell MSP, Donald Cameron MSP, Rhoda Grant MSP, John Finnie MSP and Dr Michael Foxley.<\/p>\n

…..<\/p>\n

As well as discussions about Gaelic usage in the home and community, the meetings will also gauge opinion on whether such ideas in the report such as a Gaelic community cooperative \u2013\u00a0Urras na G\u00e0idhlig<\/em> \u2013 could be an appropriate structure to coordinate and drive forward local development actions under the direct control of the Gaelic-speaking community.”<\/p>\n
