Foras na Gaeilge is providing funding for appropriate Summer Camps through Irish for young people (3 to 18 years of age):

• which aim to strengthen the Irish language through a mix of activities;
• that are not residential camps;
• which will last 5 days;
• which will run;
• which will last at least 4.5 hours each day.

This is a nonprofit scheme to keep the camp fees low for the young people.

Grants will be awarded based on comprehensive plans submitted by groups/organisations who wish to develop and promote Irish language literary projects.

Irish language publishers are publishing books of the highest standard. The quality of these books are every bit as good and often better than what is being published in English. There is a real need for an integrated approach to marketing on behalf of the publishers, both on an all-Island and on an international basis. It is for this reason that we are announcing this new scheme to provide support to the Irish language publishing sector. This is a 30 month scheme running from July 2020 to December 2022.  This new scheme will build on the excellent progress made under the first scheme which was launched in 2014.

Foras na Gaeilge welcomes organisations wishing to administer a scholarships scheme to apply to the Gaeltacht Scholarships Scheme 2020-22.  We will provide funding for scholarships under the following three categories: Pupils under 18 in the north, Adults and Families

Grants will be awarded based on comprehensive plans submitted by groups/organisations who wish to develop and promote Irish language literary projects.

This scheme assists publishers of Irish language books. Funding support is provided in the areas of production, marketing and development.

Deadline: 12:00 midday, Wednesday 2 September 2020
