Ballyphehane Learning Neighbourhood

In 2015 Cork achieved a UNESCO award as a Learning City, one of only 3 cities in Europe and one of 12 cities worldwide. This award recognises Cork’s continuing excellence and commitment to lifelong learning. Ballyphehane and Togher Learning Neighbourhoods featured prominently in hosting international delegates for the UNESCO Global Conference on Learning held in Cork from 18-20th September 2017.

Ballyphehane is proud to play its part alongside many other community groups to show the world that learning is important in Cork and in our communities. Learning happens in so many ways!

And like all good Learning Neighbourhoods we need to keep on learning ourselves; our goal in 2019 is to get to grips with the Global Goals for Sustainable Development.
