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. That’s why in El Carmelo school, the students of Bachiller have prepared some activities to promote and celebrate this day together with the other students of Secondary School. We will upload different types of pieces of information and productions during the next two weeks. Have a look at our web and don´t miss anything!
