Following the launch of the Clifden Irish Language Plan in conjunction with Foras na Gaeilge, FORUM Connemara CLG have appointed Niamh Togher as the Irish Language Planning Officer for the Clifden area.
Niamh is committed to reviving and preserving the Irish language as an integral part of our community’s identity and cultural heritage.
With a mission to create a vibrant, inclusive and sustainable language environment, it will be her role to encourage and support the active use and appreciation of the Irish language in all aspects of daily life.
Niamh is excited to get ‘Clochán ag caint’ and is looking forward to meeting with businesses, sports clubs, community groups, schools and the general community. She has already met the local Ciorcal Cómhra group for a cupán tae and some sage advice.
Niamh was born in Belmullet and received her degree in Irish and Translation studies from the University of Galway and is looking forward to applying her skills to her new position.
Tar éis seoladh Plean Teanga an Chlocháin i gcomhar le Foras na Gaeilge, FORUM Tá áthas ar CLG Chonamara fáilte a chur roimh Niamh Togher mar Oifigeach Pleanála Gaeilge do cheantar an Chlocháin.
Tá Niamh tiomanta don Ghaeilge a athbheochan agus a chaomhnú mar chuid lárnach d’fhéiniúlacht agus d’oidhreacht chultúrtha ár bpobail. Agus é mar mhisean aici timpeallacht teanga bríomhar, uilechuimsitheach agus inbhuanaithe a chruthú, beidh sé mar ról aici úsáid ghníomhach agus léirthuiscint na Gaeilge a spreagadh agus a thacú i ngach gné den saol laethúil.
Tá Niamh ar bís le ‘Clochán ag caint’ a fháil agus tá sí ag tnúth le bualadh le gnóthaí, clubanna spóirt, grúpaí pobail, scoileanna agus an pobal i gcoitinne. She has already met the local Ciorcal Cómhra group for a cupán tae and some sage advice.
Rugadh Niamh i mBéal an Mhuirthead agus fuair sí céim sa Ghaeilge agus san Aistriúchán staidéir ó Ollscoil na Gaillimhe agus tá sé ag tnúth le hiarratas a dhéanamh uirthi scileanna chuig a post nua.
