TUARSCAIL/REPORT

Go gineáralta tarlaíonn nascadh idir dhá phobail ó thíortha diofrúil ar mian leo ceangail cairdeas agus muinteras a bheith eatarthu. San lá atá inniú ann, baineann nascadh leis an phobail ar fad idir malartú scoile agus comhoibrú eacnamaíocht. Tá sé tabhachtach maoin an phobail a mheas i dtionscnamh mar seo, ionas go mbeidh an ceangail inbhunaithe agus go mbeidh daoine ann chun cabhrú le eagraíocht do grupaí agus imeachtaí a chuir ar fáil.

Má bhíonn tacaíocht ag an tionscnamh seo, is feidir socraithe a chuir I leith chun roghanna eagsúla a scrudú ó thaobh na acmhainaí atá ar fáil.

Generally, Twinning is the joining of two communities from different countries who wish to form a public bond of friendship and goodwill.  Nowadays, twinning relationships involve the whole community, from school exchanges to economic cooperation. It is very important to assess the level of local interest in such a project, so that the link is a sustainable one, and that there are enough people to assist in organising and hosting of events/ groups. 

If the proposal receives sufficient local support, arrangements to explore different options can then be examined with regard to available resources.
