Údarás na Gaeltachta welcomes the approval of planning permission for a new Education and Youth Center in Indreabhán, Co. Galway.

This is a significant development that will benefit both the local community and the Connemara Gaeltacht.
This new center will provide excellent educational and social facilities for young people in the Gaeltacht. It will have modern learning spaces as well as recreational facilities and community events. It will also create great opportunities for collaboration between schools and youth organisations in the area.
Youth play a central role in the future of the Irish language and the Gaeltacht. By making this investment, the Authority demonstrates its commitment to ensuring that the necessary support and resources are in place to meet their learning, developmental, and social needs.
Speaking about the development, Údarás na Gaeltachta CEO Tomás Ó Síocháin said:
“This good news is a great source of joy and pride for us. There is an urgent need for a center like this that will support the personal, educational, and social development of our young people in the Gaeltacht. We are committed to ensuring a successful future for the next generation, and this is a big step forward in achieving that.”
We are grateful to the local community for their support of this project and hope to begin construction in the future.
Údarás na Gaeltachta will provide ongoing support for the project during all stages of development. We are committed to investing in our Gaeltacht communities and creating opportunities for the next generation.
