was officially launched by The Donegal Gathering 2012 is a key initiative of the Donegal Diaspora Project. It aims to highlight some of the key festivals and cultural events that happen annually throughout our county, encouraging our diaspora to come home and connect with the wealth of activity that happens throughout every part of Donegal. The Gathering also acts as a tool for local people to discover what’s on their doorstep and creates opportunities for everyone to connect with their county in new ways.
The Donegal
Gathering is a well -placed and innovative marketing project that supports the
County and also positions Donegal as a market leader by feeding into the
national Gathering planned for 2013. The work that has been achieved by the
Gathering team, provides a platform for the co-ordinated marketing of events
taking place throughout Donegal, not only in 2012 but beyond. We are ahead of
the game by almost ten months when it comes to next year’s national initiative!
Mayor Mc Bride
spoke eloquently about this success and highlighted how this county must engage
with its global diaspora audience to encourage participation, identity and belonging. Sarah Meehan, marketing co-ordinator of the
project, gave a thorough demonstration of the many user friendly features of
the website as well detailing the
various social media outlets also in place.
