02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Our main goal is to preserve and help pass on Gaelic traditional knowledge and language with a particular focus on its dialectal diversity. We have been particularly engaged with Elders in our communities to help them pass on their knowledge in their own term. That knowledge is recorded and we have been processing it to be usable by future tradition bearers and other community members, as well as the academic community.
