Languages for Peace & Miscellaneous Activities

 Language classes, 26 sep 2024 - 04 okt 2024, Kovin, Srbsko

Our school dedicates a whole week to the celebration of European Day of Languages with the main topic titled “Languages for Peace” and various accompanying activities aimed at promoting peace within and peace in the world, lifelong learning, and the beauty of languages and cultural diversity. The activities include a lot of fun, quizzes, workshops, tongue twisters, songs, motivational messages, etc. but also serious and almost academic research with respect to how languages can contribute to peace-making processes and overcoming differences and different worldviews. The central part of activities focuses on research on the use of language in peace negotiations and achieving various peace agreements throughout history and related vocabulary (from the Treaty of Paris (1783) and the Treaty of Versailles (1919) over the Cold War crises and the peaceful resolution of the Checkpoint Charlie standoff to some recent peace agreements in the Balkans). We also organize an exhibition of creative posters containing messages of peace, anti-war messages and songs, as well as of the national cultural heritage translated into English and other languages. This is also an opportunity to remember our famous scientists who served as translators and writers, such as Nikola Tesla, who translated the poetry of Jovan Jovanovic Zmaj, and Mihajlo Pupin, who won the Pulitzer Prize for literature. A lot of posters and Power Point presentations are dedicated as well to our Nobel Prize-winning author Ivo Andric and poets like Jovan Jovanovic Zmaj and Desanka Maksimovic and the translation of their oeuvre into English. Interesting research is also conducted concerning the achievement of intergalactic peace titled “Star Peace—Anti-war Star Wars," where students discovered numerous anti-war messages in the famous Star Wars Trilogy while using Yoda’s wise sayings and adages to analyse his inverted syntax and learn the correct word order in English sentences. Our goal is to send love, peace and good vibrations to the whole world and speak world peace into existence in our language classes. <3 <3 <3
