European Day of Languages
• Every year since 2001, in Europe we celebrate the European Day of Languages on 26 September . In our days more and more people are encouraged to learn more languages, at any age, in and out of school. As the Council of Europe understood this motion , it determined to promote plurilingualism in the whole Europe .
• On the occasion of the day, a range of events are organised across Europe:
Activities for and with children
Television and radio programmes
Language classes and conferences.
• National authorities and the various partners are able to organise activities like these .
• As a contribution to the Council of Europe's European Day of Languages, the Association of Language Testers in Europe met in Athens at an event attended by policy-makers, university staff, and school-owners from across the region to discuss maintaining standards of language learning. The day-long programme included contributions from ambassadors from the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain.
