Sparking large-scale change in heritage language education: A Global Call
to Action

In time for UNESCO’s International Mother Language Day 2024, which
celebrates students’ universal right to study their heritage languages, a
new global think tank of academics and practitioners have created an
easy-to-use
list of recommendations
<https://menntavisindastofnun.hi.is/is/global-call-hle> for everyone – from
students to mainstream schools to policy-makers – to help improve heritage
language and culture education for multilingual children worldwide.

If you want to help heritage language educators and the children they
support, please be sure to pledge commitment to the Global Call to Action
publicly on social media and share widely within your networks.

Press release: https://www.hlenet.org/post/global-call-hle


International Mother Language Day marks the launch of the Global Call to
Action. Throughout the year, the Call will be added in other languages, and
events will be organized to promote it, discuss it, and raise awareness
about it. For updates, follow FOHLC Europe (Forum of Heritage Language
Coalitions in Europe): www.facebook.com/FOHLCE


Thank you!
