Galway County Council has announced details of a new funding scheme for organisations, businesses and communities of Oileáin Árann (The Aran Islands) that are interested in developing projects and initiatives focusing on addressing climate change. €60,000 is being made available through this new pilot Climate Action Fund. Oileáin Árann, consisting of the three islands of Árainn (Inis Mór), Inis Meáin and Inis Oírr, was designated as the Galway County Decarbonisation Zone in the Galway County Council Climate Action Plan 2024-2029. A Decarbonising Zone (DZ) is a chosen area where local authorities and communities work together to reduce the amount of carbon produced by their everyday activities. By looking within the community for ways to live and work more sustainably, these zones can find local solutions to global problems. The main objective of a Decarbonising Zone is to find innovative but achievable ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The fund will support climate action projects in four key theme areas, namely Energy, Travel, Food and Waste, and Local Environmental Action. The fund is now open to applications. Councillor Martina Kinane, Cathaoirleach of Galway County Council, celebrated the launch of this Pilot Fund, which she says, "builds upon the remarkable dedication of the communities of Oileáin Árann in the areas of climate action and sustainability". Welcoming the opening of the funding scheme, Liam Conneally, Chief Executive of Galway County Council noted that, "This new fund will hopefully be the start of financial assistance to help our island communities to reduce the use of carbon in their day to day lives. The Fund should also help to empower the communities of Oileáin Árann, cultivating stronger, more sustainable and resilient islands". He added, "The fund will create learnings that can be shared with communities across the County". Uinsinn Finn, Director of Services at Galway County Council acknowledged the existing commitment and strength of community involvement on the islands, who have established a local Comharchumann Fuinneamh to support their goal of increasing the sustainability of their homes and transport while protecting their unique ecosystem. The closing date for applications to the Oileáin Árann Climate Action Fund is Friday 30th May. Further information is available on https://www.galway.ie/en/services/environment/climate/ or from Rebecca Mooney, Climate Action Officer at climateaction@galwaycoco.ie / 091 509302.

Inishmore is the largest of the Aran Islands of Galway Bay in Ireland and is an area consisting of 12 square miles. It is the largest island off the Irish coast with no bridge or causeway to the mainland. One of the most remarkable features of Inishmore island is the Poll na bPéist which translates as the "Serpent's Lair," relating to the legend of a reptilian sea monster from Gaelic folklore. Most of the locals just refer to it as the Wormhole. This is likely the most unusual sight you'll encounter if you ever explore Inishmore. It is truly considered one of Ireland's top hidden gems, because what you will behold is what appears to be an almost perfectly cut giant rectangle into the limestone floor. Is the Wormhole of Inishmore just a natural wonder or is it an artificial creation of the ancients? 2025 PERU &/or EASTER ISLAND TOUR

Darwin called the Galápagos archipelago “a little world within itself,” unaffected by humans and set on its own evolutionary path – strange, diverse, and unique. Islands are repositories of unique cultures and ways of living, seed banks built up in relative isolation. Island is an archipelago of ideas, drawing from research and first-hand experience living, working, and travelling to islands as far afield as Madeira and Cape Verde, Orkney and Svalbard, the Aran Islands and the Gulf Islands, Hong Kong and Manhattan. Islands have long been viewed as both paradise and prison – we project onto them our deepest desires for freedom and escape, but also our greatest fears of forced isolation. This book asks: what can islands teach us about living sustainably, being alone or coexisting with others, coping with uncertainty, and making do? Island (Bloomsbury, 2024) by Dr. Julian Hanna, part of the Object Lessons series, explores these and other questions and ideas, but is constructed above all from the stories and experiences gathered during a lifetime of island hopping. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Aran Islands by John Millington Synge, adapted and dramatised for radio by Joe O'Byrne.

The Aran Islands lie in Galway Bay off the west coast of Ireland. They're made up of Inis Mór, Inis Mearn, and Inis Oírr. People have likely lived on the islands since c. 3000 BCE. Late Bronze Age and Iron Age ruins scatter the islands, alongside old churches and holy wells. After the era of saints and pilgrimages, Elizabeth I unlawfully seized ownership of the islands in 1565 and in 1588, she sold them to the Lynch family. Oliver Cromwell took them back and passed them to his supporters. Absentee English landlords owned the islands until 1922. They boast such fascinating sights as the Wormhole, believed to be the home of a giant serpent, and the remains of the ancient forts. The Aran Islands are also the home of the world-famous Aran sweaters! Let's find out more about saints, ancient forts, and knitting lore in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!

In celebration of St. Patrick's Day, this week's journey takes us to the enchanting city of Galway, Ireland - a sister city to Seattle, Washington. Galway is not just known for it's stunning scenery or songs about pretty girls, it is also steeped in folklore and mysteries that rival even our own haunted locales in the Pacific Northwest.We begin our exploration with the whimsical world of fairies, delving into the ancient tales of Knockma Hill, where the fairy king Finvarra reigns. But be warned, for disturbing the fairy cairns or forts may incur the wrath of these mischievous beings. Moving on to the eerie depths of Galway's lakes, we encounter a plethora of cryptids, from the enigmatic creatures of Black Lake and Coole Lake to the terrifying Loathsome Creature of Lough Fadda. Could these lake monsters be descendants of the legendary Dobhar-chú? Our journey takes a darker turn as we delve into the phenomenon of Spontaneous Human Combustion, unraveling the tragic fate of Michael Faherty and the mysteries surrounding his unfortunate demise.We wouldn't dare leave the spirits of Galway behind. From phantom pirate ships haunting the coast to the tragic tale of Castle Daly's final party turned massacre, the ghosts of Ireland's past linger amidst the ruins. We encounter the Knocking Girl of Rathpeak House, whose ghostly presence seeks solace in the mortal realm. And who could forget the sorrowful Phantom Sad Old Man of Maam Cross, a specter from the depths of history? But perhaps the most peculiar of all Galway legends are the Short Men in Green of the Aran Islands, whose encounter leaves a young boy questioning the boundaries between myth and reality. Join us as we traverse the landscapes of Galway, where every shadow holds a secret and every corner is steeped in legend. For in this land of ancient tales and modern mysteries, the line between fact and folklore blurs into the realm of the unknown.This week we shared the podcasts Obscura: A True Crime Podcast & The Peripheral!Visit our website!

Welcome aboard the NB Erica on a wet winter's night. It is a perfect night to snuggle down and listen to JM Synge's turn of the 20th century accounts of his travels to the Aran Islands in a small currach on stormy seas. Journal entry:14th February, Wednesday (St. Valentine's Day)“Outside, No coat, On the hill that runs down to the cut.Warm sun, fleeting, Cloud chasing with the gulls And the circle of two buzzards.Maggie sits, watching, From a throne of dried grass And teasels.I too watch, As the seconds pause. I had never realised that the cormorant's Buoyant flight Was quite like that.”Episode Information:In this episode I read passages from JM Synge's (1907) book The Aran Islands republished by Penguin Classics (1992).For more information go to the episode page at noswpod.com With special thanks to our lock-wheelersfor supporting this podcast.Chris and Alan on NB Land of Green Ginger Captain Arlo Rebecca Russell Allison on the narrowboat Mukka Derek and Pauline Watts Anna V.

Today we welcome Indiana Stones himself, the one and only David Keohan. Hailing from Ireland, David is a Stone lifter, a kettlebell world champion, an artist and a musician. He's been on a mission to recover Ireland's lost stone lifting culture and has done so through our literature and folklore. We spoke all about his stone lifting journey from his lifting of the fianna stone in Scotland which inspired his own search in Ireland. Culminating in the rediscovery of the stone described by the famous Galway writer Liam O'Flaherty in his short story ‘The Stone'. He has rediscovered 30 testing stones, a remarkable act of reclamation and celebration of this lost tradition. Through this act David has created a remarkable and unique magical act of healing of the multi-generational trauma of Ireland's colonisation. These great testing stones, now rediscovered form a chain back into our ancient past, before colonisation, before christianity and in lifting these stones once more the chain is renewed, in a feat of strength and deep ancestral healing. His work is a brilliant and inspiring intersection of folklore, magic, mythology, and strength. In the Plus show we get into ancestral work, and animism. We talk about Peig Sayers and Ghosts leading us to tell their stories. The death stone of Cú Chulainn, the Irish Hercules and to close out the show I read Liam O'Flaherty's short story ‘The Stone'.

An Naomh Éanna le briseadh i mBaile Átha Cliath. The Naomh Éanna, the well-known boat that spent thirty years taking passengers between Galway and Arran, is to be broken up in Dublin. Tá an Naomh Éanna, an bád aitheanta a chaith tríocha bliain ag tabhairt paisinéirí idir Gaillimh agus Árainn, le briseadh i mBaile Átha Cliath. It is understood that this will be done from now on for the next two months. Tuigtear go ndéanfar sin as seo go ceann dhá mhí.

Now as we broadcast to you live from Galway we have been taking a look at some of the beautiful attractions of the West. From the Spanish Arch to Salthill, the City of the Tribes is not just full of culture and arts but also breathtaking scenery. Some of the most popular destinations off the coast of Ireland are not far from here either, the Aran Islands. We sent Newstalk reporter, Josh Crosbie to Inis Oírr to meet with tourists and locals about the magic of island life.

In this very special episode we take a trip around Inishmore - the largest of the Aran Islands - in the company of Cyril O'Flaherty. Cyril is a well known local historian and artist and gives a special insight into many old Irish culture and traditions as we travel around - many of which are still alive in this most beautiful of settings.

American musician Rhiannon Giddens investigates the fascinating life and recordings of the folk song collector Sidney Robertson Cowell. Travelling thousands of miles all over the US in the depression era, Cowell was willing to track down songs in unlikely places, once writing "I don't scare easily." She spent a night riding in a hearse in Wisconsin just to question the driver and hear his songs, walked up mountains to record lumberjacks and traditional Appalachian singers and poled three miles downriver after dark on a makeshift raft to find a famed fiddler in his goldmine in California. Listening to her recordings is like travelling back in time; they capture the voices of so many different nationalities that emigrated to the US, but she also made recordings on the Aran Islands in Ireland. During her lifetime Cowell was marginalised like so many women collectors of that period, but in this celebration of her recordings and observations, Giddens finally gives her work the attention it deserves. With indebted thanks to the American Folklife Center archive in the Library of Congress who hold the collection of Sidney Robertson Cowell's recordings and to the following contributors who have done so much to bring her work to light: Cathy Hiebert Kerst, folklorist and archivist who catalogued Sidney's recordings of the WPA California Folk Project. Sheryl Kaskowitz, scholar of American music and author of forthcoming book: The Music Unit: FDR's Hidden New Deal Program that Tried to Save America from the Great Depression—One Song at a Time. Jim P Leary, a folklorist and scholar of Scandinavian studies, and a professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, author of Folksongs of Another America.

Last week, scientists from all over Ireland and Europe were trapped on Inishmaan for three days as a result of a typical November storm. Luckily, studying such extreme weather and its effect on the Irish coast and climate change was exactly why they were there. The scientists had been attending a scientific conference showcasing research on ocean science, forecasting and climate change focused on developing a roadmap towards a permanent Aran Islands International Research Station (AIRS). Aran Islands International Research Station (AIRS) Inishmaan is uniquely placed for such a permanent research station, and would open major new perspectives for Irish and European research, not only in wave and storm science but also on a variety of other areas such as geology, agronomy, botany, climate change, archaeology, and renewable energies. This unique location provides unparalleled access to study ocean storms and weather systems, areas of research of critical importance as the world struggles to understand and adapt to climate change. The conference provided a timely forum for leading international scientists to meet with members of the local community to discuss how to best serve ocean and climate science, and to consider how the research station could be adapted into a more permanent facility. The HIGHWAVE station had been planned since 2019 by Professor Frederic Dias and Senior Research Engineer Arnaud Disant, was funded by the European Research Council, and has been operational since 2021. It is now providing invaluable data on local wave conditions and their effects on coastal erosion and future global warming trends. The conference began with opening addresses from Prof Orla Feely, UCD Vice President for Research, Innovation and Impact, and Prof Philippe Maitre, Vice-President, Research Strategy from ENS-Paris, the two founding institutions of AIRS. The local community was represented by the Aran Island Energy Coop (CFOAT), Comhlacht Forbartha Inis Meáin, and Coláiste Naomh Eoin, and there were exciting presentations that caught the attention of the scientific representatives of Ireland, France, Italy, USA, Norway, Uruguay, and the Netherlands. The conference concluded with a clear consensus on the need for a permanent research station on the Aran Islands, and UCD and ENS will work together in pursuit of this.

My friend Grace Dyas is still relatively young but she's already something of an Irish legend. Grace is an artist, activist, writer, director, producer, and performer. Originally from south inner-city Dublin, she now lives on the Inis Oirr, one of the beautiful Aran Islands off the coast of County Galway. Grace has an incredible portfolio of work and award-winning achievements to her name. She has created films, plays, live performances and large-scale projects with people who had never done art before. She has made art about all facets of addiction, and topics such as sex work, social housing, political conflict and corruption, abortion, and the legacy of Church and State abuse in Ireland, mostly with survivors of Magdalene Laundries. Grace writes on her website, “I make art because I know it changes lives for the better”. We're going to dive into some of these areas and more in this rich conversation. We also talk a good bit about emotional health and some of the challenges Grace has been through and I want to say if you find yourself in need of help or support, please do reach out to a friend, a GP, a relevant helpline, or support service in whatever country you are in. It's also important that we look out for each other these days when so many people are under pressure.

Algen sind die neue Avocado, super gesund und super lecker – jedenfalls, wenn man die Avantgarde der europäischen Kochkunst fragt. Der ZEIT-WISSEN-Podcast ist zu Gast in einem irischen Sternerestaurant und besucht einen Algenkochkurs. Außerdem verrät uns eine Food-Forscherin aus Italien ihr Lieblingsrezept für Quallen (6:15). Und in seiner unmöglichen Kolumne geht Christoph Drösser dem Geheimnis des Schluckaufs auf die Spur (12:40). Shownotes: Wenn Sie nicht an der Atlantikküste wohnen und frische Algen sammeln können, können Sie getrocknete Algen am besten online beziehen, zum Beispiel direkt von den Aran Islands bei https://www.blathnamara.ie. Oder bei der Algenköchin Prannie Rhatigan unter https://irishseaweedkitchen.ie. Informationen über das Quallenforschungsprojekt GoJelly sind unter https://gojelly.eu zusammengefasst. Wie Quallen zum Essen zubereitet werden, beschreibt das Forschungsteam von Antonella Leone in dieser Arbeit: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnut.2021.718798/full Würden Sie Quallen essen?

Deirdre Ní Chonghaile is a writer, musician, broadcaster, and curator from the Aran Islands. Working bilingually in Irish and English, she is drawn to voices, contemporary and historical, especially those that have been marginalized, and to what they have to say or sing. She read Music at St. Hilda's College, Oxford, and worked at the University of Notre Dame and the Library of Congress. Deirdre is currently curating an exhibition for Roinn na Gaeilge at NUI Galway on the first professor of Irish there, Tomás Ó Máille, and also preparing an anthology of over fifty traditional songs composed in the Aran Islands from the nineteenth century to the present day. In this interview, she discusses her new book Collecting Music in the Aran Islands: A Century of History and Practice (U Wisconsin Press, 2021), which uses interlocking case-studies of traditional music collection to investigate questions of preservation, curation and marginalization. Collecting Music in the Aran Islands, a critical historiographical study of the practice of documenting traditional music, is the first to focus on the archipelago off the west coast of Ireland. Deirdre Ní Chonghaile argues for a culturally equitable framework that considers negotiation, collaboration, canonization, and marginalization to fully understand the immensely important process of musical curation. In presenting four substantial, historically valuable collections from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, she illustrates how understanding the motivations and training (or lack thereof) of individual music collectors significantly informs how we should approach their work and contextualize their place in the folk music canon.
