Many schools across Europe are actively involved in the PLURIWELL project

Teachers are working together with colleagues at their schools to better understand their own plurilingual wellbeing by sharing language repertoires, discussing what knowing a language means, analysing the relationship teachers have with their own languages ... Teachers are also exploring how they can help other teachers develop plurilingual wellbeing by designing tools with this aim in mind.
