European Day of Languages in Vilnius - Summary
The European Day of Languages is celebrated each year on 26 September. It highlights Europe's important cultural asset: multilingualism that at the same time represents a barrier for seamless communication and ubiquitous access to (understandable) content. This year, Vilnius hosted the 2-days conference "Unity in Diversity" with an attractive, international programme that discussed the many facets of multilingualism, amongst them: Multilingualism in digital content, languages for mobility, jobs, and active citizenship, or ICT for language learning.
For images and videos of the conference, please visit the Lithuanian presidency/Parliamentary dimension website that fully documents the event. [Image credit: Office of the Seimas]
