President Michael D. Higgins to address city conference on revival of Irish language

Galway Bay fm newsroom - President Michael D. Higgins will next week address a city conference on Conradh na Gaelige and the revival of the Irish language.

The symposium at NUI Galway will mark the 125th anniversary of the establishment of the cultural and social organisation.

 

Conradh na Gaeilge was founded in 1893 and soon became a leading force in the Gaelic Revival which aimed to reverse a decline in the Irish language.
