It's the big demo day for our CivTech challenge to solve the issue of data sparsity that stands in the way of Scottish Gaelic being understood and effectively used by the new wave of digital language tools and if not addressed soon Gaelic risks being left behind by the digital age.

This challenge is sponsored by the Scottish Government Gaelic and Scots Division and the University of Edinburgh's Prof. Will Lamb.

Our wonderful team has come together over 4 months to prove the concept, of a system that will solve this problem by:

Engaging with the Gaelic speaking community through the string connections of our team members from Fèisean nan Gàidheal.

Recording, transcribing, translating and tagging natural two way Gaelic speech.

That can be used as a dataset to facilitate the integration and creation of Gaelic language features into all sorts of digital services from educational resources to live subtitling. This will support everyday usage for Gaelic speakers and support new learning resources to attract new learners, all in the context of severe digital challenges.

This day is taking place in the Assembly Roxy in Edinburgh, with a lot of movers and shakers. There are 12 challenges progress demos being heard and the best of these will progress to the next round if the CivTech programme. A lot hinges on today, for the team and also for the future of the Gaelic language.

We created a new brand identity and website for Mind The Gap that amplifies their mission: collaborating with learning disabled and/or autistic artists to create bold, inclusive, and original theatre.

We conducted workshops in Bradford over several days. A strategic workshop and a separate and more emotive visual and tone workshop. In the spirit of Mind the Gap participants with learning disabilities and autism were fully involved and usually leading in all the discussions with the kind of powerful purpose and insight that can only come from a lived-experience led group.

This is the last of our Creating Change articles for the year. This year, we have aimed to highlight amazing creatives and innovators using their knowledge and skills for the betterment of people and planet.

It’s been uplifting to hear what people are doing to make a difference all around the world. We’ve had the privilege to speak to change makers from Gaza to the frozen north of Canada.

Our aim with this project was to provide a bit of positivity and joy as an antidote to the constant stream of negative news that floods our screens. If you need a bit of a pick-me-up and proof that good people are still out there, all the articles are on our website to read.

If you want to be featured, contact us for next year.
