To celebrate the 2021 European Day of Languages, you are warmly invited to
join us for an online conference on Monday 27 September from 12:00 until

This year’s main event will demonstrate the European Commission’s broad
support for the implementation of the Recommendation of the Council of the
European Union (EU) on a comprehensive approach to the teaching and
learning of languages.

Together, we will discuss

    -the role of language competences in the context of the European
Education Area
    -how to boost foreign language learning, including the introduction of
a voluntary module to assess the first foreign language with the
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's (OECD) 2025 PISA
report
    -how to incorporate language diversity and support literacy in all
languages in schools

Mariya Gabriel, European Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture,
Education and Youth, will launch the event and give an overview of the
policy context.
