2010 European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion |
|
2010 has been designated as the European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion. The European Year aims to raise public awareness of poverty and social exclusion and to convey the message that they are obstacles to social and economic development. It also aims to reaffirm the importance of collective responsibility for reducing poverty among all interests, including those experiencing poverty. These objectives are reflected in Ireland’s National Programme for the European Year which involves a range of events and activities throughout the country that are being organised by Government departments, statutory agencies, local authorities, expert organisations, and national and local community and voluntary organisations.
As the National Implementing Body for the European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion the Social Inclusion Division has produced a newsletter with updates on activities that have taken place to date, as well as news of developments of interest to all our stakeholders. This newsletter can be found at the following link: http://www.welfare.ie/EN/eu2010/Documents/newsletter0710.pdf.
In addition we have also developed a website, where further information on upcoming events marking the European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion can be found. This can be accessed at: http://www.welfare.ie/EN/eu2010/Pages/eu2010.aspx
If you have any further queries regarding the European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion please do not hesitate to contact us on (01) 6473248 or by email at

National Adult Literacy Week |
|
With an estimated one in four adults having a significant literacy difficulty, agencies dealing with the public face particular challenges in ensuring that people can understand and use their services. One step in the right direction is to use plain English. Using plain English makes sense because clearer information is more likely to save time, money and possible frustration in clarifying misunderstandings. This September, as part of National Adult Literacy Awareness Week, the National Adult Literacy Agency will launch a campaign to encourage organisations dealing with the public to use plain English. This will include a seminar on removing literacy-related barriers in organisations, followed by free plain English writing workshops for relevant staff in government departments, public and private sector, and NGOs. The seminar will take place on Friday 10 September from 9.30am – 12.45pm in Newman House, St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2. For further information, contact
