“Council of Europe Urges UK to Enhance Support for Irish and Ulster Scots Languages in Northern Ireland”

The UK is being urged by the Council of Europe, a prominent human rights organization, to advance efforts to promote the use of Irish and Ulster Scots languages in Northern Ireland, despite ongoing tensions surrounding the issue. Experts from the Council are also advocating for enhanced support for the teaching and use of other minority languages across the UK, including Cornish, Scots, Scottish Gaelic, Welsh, and Manx Gaelic in the Isle of Man. The call emphasizes the importance of preserving and promoting linguistic diversity within the region.
