At the Council of Europe’s initiative, The European Day of Languages has been celebrated every day since 2001 on 26th September. Throughout Europe, 800 million Europeans are represented in the Council of Europe’s 47 member states and all are encouraged to discover more languages at any age. This stems from the conviction that linguistic diversity is a tool for achieving greater intercultural understanding and a key element in the rich cultural heritage of our continent. The Council of Europe, therefore, promotes pluringualism in the whole of Europe.
