The Investors in Young People gold accreditation asserts that MG ALBA creates opportunities for young people and fosters a nurturing environment, as shown by the roles young people take in all aspects of the organisation’s work.
Online Learning Associate, Rona Morrison, 22, is one of the youngest full-time members of staff at MG ALBA, working primarily on the landmark new project SpeakGaelic.
Rona said “It’s brilliant to be working with other young people on such an interesting project, and something so significant for the future of Gaelic learning. I know as well that mine and my peers ideas and comments are always welcomed and valued in the team.”
Ealasaid MacDonald, MG ALBA’s Director of Strategy and External Affairs said: “We are delighted that MG ALBA is recognised as a company that values young people and the important role they have in shaping the work we do.
“Serving young people is at the heart of our Lèirsinn: A Route Map for Gaelic Media, published last week, which outlines our vision for the future of Gaelic Media.
“We will continue to work with younger people to ensure they have the opportunities to be part of delivering an exciting and vibrant Gaelic media service.”
