We are delighted to take part in this event to celebrate the linguistic diversity of our continent. Children are invited to choose a language of their choice and on Monday:
come dressed in the colours of the flag of the country that speaks that language (doesn’t have to be a native European language)
learn a phrase or two in the language of their choice to share with their classmates
Throughout Europe, 700 million Europeans are represented in the Council of Europe’s 46 member states and all are encouraged to discover more languages at any age, as part of or alongside their studies. This stems from the Council of Europe’s conviction that linguistic diversity is a tool for achieving greater intercultural understanding and a key element in the rich cultural heritage of our continent. Therefore, the Council of Europe, in Strasbourg, promotes plurilingualism in the whole of Europe.
At the Council of Europe’s initiative, the European Day of Languages has been celebrated every year since 2001 on 26 September – together with the European Commission.
