Contextual Welsh language use in Gwynedd

Part-time PhD researcher exploring why, when, and who uses Welsh when and with who, and why this sometimes is not the case.

Working closely with Gwynedd Council, research is based around implementing practical measures to encourage Welsh speakers to use Welsh in more contexts, and to encourage non-Welsh speakers to learn.
