Meeting Description: 

The University Language Centre (CLA) of the University of Salerno, in
collaboration with the Italian University Language Centres, is pleased to
announce the XI AICLU National Conference, entitled: University Language
Centres: intervention strategies in interlingual and intercultural
communication processes.

In line with the European provisions on the valorisation of the learning
processes and the teaching/learning of languages, the University Language
Centres will contribute to raising the levels of competence, participation and
success of the courses offered through a greater promotion of local resources
and development.

Starting from these perspectives, the Conference will contribute to the debate
on the relationship between interculture and internationalization in
scientific and didactic cooperation processes.

All the aspects related to the meeting between different languages and
cultures will be considered in relation to any strategic actions aimed at
interventions in multicultural contexts to develop the skills necessary to
deal with the collaboration between language centres, which are meeting places
of academics from different backgrounds and cultures. Through studies,
interventions and comparisons, the aim is to provide tools for the design,
organization and evaluation of learning paths in the linguistic-cultural field
as well as international cooperation, in order to overcome the barriers of
linguistic misunderstanding. University Language Centres are not only
responsible for the international coordination and management of the
interlinguistic component in scientific and educational relations between
different universities but also supporting a more effective reception of
Erasmus students.
The main role of the University Language Centres will also be highlighted,
which lies in the active participation in the implementation of educational
projects in support of European language policies as well as the protection of
linguistic-cultural diversity.
