Languages at the heart of learning

As language is at the root of all learning, there can be no quality education without quality language and intercultural education. All teachers, at all levels, whatever subject they teach, have an important part to play in building their learners' linguistic and intercultural repertoires. This is reflected in the new title – Languages at the heart of learning.

Overview

The programme consists of two strands: development and mediation.

The development strand focuses on creating new solutions to the challenges identified by our member states, through projects and think tanks; through the mediation strand member states can adapt and implement existing ECML resources, access ECML expertise through Training and consultancy and national support events, celebrate the European Day of Language and take part in conferences, webinars and colloquia open to a wider public.
