This Sunday, 21 February, is International Mother Language Day.
The EU is proud of its linguistic diversity: 24 official languages and some 60 regional and minority languages with varying degrees of official recognition throughout our territory. Language is a vital expression of identity and culture, which is why theCultural Compass for Europeaims to preserve this diversity.
ThroughErasmus and Creative Europe, it is supported linguistic diversity with projects that come from the language communities themselves, from creative residencies for writers working in minority languages to student exchanges that promote regional languages across Europe‘.
The European Commission also supports linguistic diversity through Horizon Europe research projects on
- revitalising languages
- Strengthening European linguistic capital
- promoting multilingual identities.
