Appreciating Plurilingual Competencies: Current and Future Perspectives
The Masaryk University Language Centre cordially invites you to the second conference dedicated to plurilingualism. The first one, Teaching and Learning Languages in the Shadow of Lingua Franca, was held in Brno in 2019. This time, the MU Language Centre is happy to co-organise the event with the Free University of Brussels and the University of Fribourg.
The aim of this colloquium is to encourage reflection on plurilingual skills by adopting an interdisciplinary and practical approach. Language teachers working in higher education, as well as researchers from different cultural and geographical backgrounds, are invited to this conference to present and share their good practices, to explore and develop new perspectives and to stimulate an in-depth reflection on the issues at the heart of plurilingualism. During these two days, the aim will be to establish fruitful and intense exchanges about plurilingual and pluricultural attitudes in an academic context that could be useful for future advocacy.
