Co-ion­an­nachd Equal­it­ies Bu chòir don a h‑uile buid­heann seo a lìon­adh a‑steach For all organ­isa­tions to complete

Has your pub­lic author­ity iden­ti­fied any par­tic­u­lar issues relat­ing to equal­ity of oppor­tun­ity with regard to the devel­op­ment of Gael­ic language?

No issues have been identified.

A bheil poilea­said­hean, mod­han-obrach no dòighean-obrach sam bith co-chean­gailte ri co- ion­an­nachd a chaidh a chur an gnìomh leis an ùgh­dar­ras pho­blach agaibh, no a tha gan cur an gnìomh an-dràsta, a bhuineas ri bhith a’ cur co-ion­an­nachd cho­thro­man air adhart an lùib leas­achadh na Gàidh­lig? An inns sibh dhuinn mun deidhinn?

Are there any equal­it­ies policies, pro­ced­ures or meas­ures that have been imple­men­ted by your pub­lic author­ity, or are in the pro­cess of being imple­men­ted, that are rel­ev­ant to advan­cing the equal­ity of oppor­tun­ity in the devel­op­ment of Gael­ic lan­guage? Can you tell us about them?

An appoint­ments policy and mon­it­or­ing is in place to include Gael­ic as desir­able / essen­tial cri­ter­ia where rel­ev­ant. A Gael­ic strap­line is included on the jobs sec­tion of our web­site, which recog­nises Gael­ic as an asset to the organ­isa­tion and encour­ages Gael­ic speak­ers to apply for all posts. Where rel­ev­ant, roles are advert­ised in both Eng­lish and Gaelic.

A bheil eis­im­pleire­an ann de cheum­an­nan sòn­raichte a ghabh sibh gus piseach a thoirt air in- ghabhail agus com-pàirteachas a tha air obrachadh gu sòn­raichte math a thaobh leas­achadh na Gàidh­lig taobh a‑staigh an ùgh­dar­rais pho­blaich agaibh? An inns sibh dhuinn nam biodh sibh toi­l­ichte nan sgaoileadh Bòrd na Gàidh­lig na h‑eisimpleirean agaibh agus dèana­maid san­as­achd orra.

Are there examples of imple­ment­ing spe­cif­ic meas­ures to improve inclus­iv­ity or engage­ment that have worked par­tic­u­larly well regard­ing Gael­ic lan­guage devel­op­ment for your pub­lic author­ity? Please indic­ate if you would be happy for Bòrd na Gàidh­lig to share and pro­mote the examples provided.

• Com­bin­ing use­ful, com­mon terms with more unusu­al examples, our weekly Gael­ic posts are aimed and both learners and flu­ent speak­ers alike. The con­cise, visu­al nature of the posts also make them more enga­ging and access­ible. The posts receive strong levels of engage­ment across plat­forms, with some receiv­ing close to 1,000 likes on Twit­ter (one was retweeted by Out­lander act­or Sam Heughan, for example).

• The Shinty Trail illus­trate how the use of Gael­ic, embed­ded with­in her­it­age stor­ies, can deliv­er sig­ni­fic­ant bene­fits for loc­al com­munit­ies as well as the inten­ded audi­ence. The resource is also unashamedly con­tem­por­ary, using an enga­ging digit­al plat­form to tell this fas­cin­at­ing story. Ded­ic­ated Eng­lish and Gael­ic ver­sions of the resource are avail­able, show­ing equal respects to both lan­guages and demon­strat­ing how this can be achieved in practice.

• The Her­it­age Inter­pret­a­tion Toolkit encour­ages the use of Gael­ic whilst provid­ing access­ible advice on effect­ively apply­ing the lan­guage. The toolkit aims to sup­port busi­nesses and com­munit­ies in the Nation­al Park to embrace the lan­guage as a means of attract­ing vis­it­ors and enhan­cing their over­all experience.
