Bhí cruinniú dearfach ag Fóram na nÓg leis an Aire don Gheilleagar, an Dr Caoimhe Archibald.

Phléigh muid ár gcúiseanna imní maidir leis an dréacht a chuir an Roinn Geilleagair amach den ráiteas polasaí ‘Stronger Futures’.

Gheall feidhmeannaigh ón Roinn go n-oibreódh siad le feidhmeannaigh sa Roinn Oideachais maidir leis na saincheisteanna a thóg muid.

D’aithin an tAire an fiúntas a bhaineann leis an obair óige as Gaeilge agus an fiúntas a bhaineann leis an earnáil, chomh maith leis an ról thábhachtach atá aici inár bpobal agus inár ngeilleagar.

Dhírigh an tAire ár n-aird ar a cuid iarrachtaí go dtí seo agus roinn sí go bhfuil sí ag súil le níos mó rannpháirtíochta leis an earnáil amach anseo agus an earnáil ag dul chun cinn, ag neartú bhonn fianaise na hoibre agus ag forbairt gairmchonairí do dhaoine óga in earnáil na Gaeilge.

Ba mhaith le Fóram na nÓg buíochas a ghabháil leis an Aire as a cuid ama agus as a cuid tacaíochta.

Fóram na nÓg, the representative body for the Irish-Medium youth work sector across the north of Ireland, has met this month with senior Department of Education officials, the Irish Language Commissioner, the Chairperson of the Education Authority, the EA's Director of Youth Services and the Commissioner for Children and Young People, as part of ongoing engagement on the draft Stronger Futures youth work policy, currently out for public consultation. The organisation has confirmed it will continue lobbying on the issue in the coming weeks and months.

The engagement follows the Department's acknowledgement that the lack of explicit reference to Irish-Medium youth work in the draft had created a perception of exclusion, and its commitment to translating the draft policy into Irish, extending the consultation period and providing a mechanism for people to respond in Irish.

Young people and staff from Fóram na nÓg met this week with Education Authority Chairperson Mervyn Storey and Director of EA Youth Services Arlene Kee to express concern regarding the lack of visibility for the Irish-medium youth work sector within the draft Youth Work Policy ‘Stronger Futures’. We discussed the importance of clear policy direction from the Department of Education to the Education Authority, explicitly recognising and addressing the needs of IM youth work.

The Education Authority provided assurance that the EA Board and senior management are committed to ensuring that the IM youth sector continues to be resourced and treated equitably in the direction and allocation of resources to provision. Following the upcoming extended draft policy consultation period, Fóram na nÓg welcomes the opportunity to further discuss the incoming policy to ensure that the EA continues to recognise and support IM youth work as a distinct, unique, and hugely beneficial strand of youth provision.

Cruinnithe Ráithiúla leis an Roinn Oideachas agus Oifig an Choimisinéara i dtaca le dréacht polasaí óige

Bhí cruinniú rathúil again leis an RO agus tar éis sin, le hOifig an Chomisinéara, agus phléigh muid an earnáil óige Ghaeilge a bheith fágtha ar lár sa dréacht polasaí óige nua.

Cuireann Fóram na nÓg fáilte roimh an tacaíocht atá léirithe ag Oifig an Choimisinéara go dtí seo, agus beidh muid ag obair go dlúth leo amach anseo chun buairimh na hearnála óige Ghaeilge a thógáil leis an Roinn Oideachais🤝

Lobbying Update: Draft Youth Work Policy

We met with DE, and shortly afterwards met with representatives from Oifig an Choimisinéara discussing the exclusion of Irish Medium Youth Work in the new Youth Work Draft Policy.

Fóram na nÓg welcome the support of Oifig an Choimisinéara and the agreement to work closely on addressing our sector’s key concerns with the Department of Education🤝
