Speakers like Kelly Burke and Séamas Ó Concheanainn stress that real progress hinges on workforce development, urging universities to ramp up language education to meet demand. With Ireland’s ambitious goal of 20% Irish-speaking public sector hires by 2030, Minister Dara Calleary emphasizes practical, targeted action to ensure language rights are not just acknowledged but actively upheld across all services.
