Aberdeen, a city of languages

 Conference, 25 ira. 2025, Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Drs Fransiska Louwagie and Clémence O’Connor (University of Aberdeen) will discuss Aberlangs, a partnership initiative supporting multilingualism and the presence of home, heritage and community languages in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.

Cities of languages build on the idea that languages learning and the value of home, heritage and community languages (of Scottish as well as wider origins) are an asset to both individuals and collective

Eman botoa urteko ekitaldi berritzaileenaren alde!

Piper eta gatz pixka bat emateko HEGari, gure orrira sartzen zarenean botoa ematen ahalko duzu berritzaileena iruditzen zaizun HEG ekitaldiaren alde, sorkuntza gisara aipagarriena delako, edo bere erabilgarritasunagatik, edo, besterik gabe, egunaren esanahia hobekien islatzen duena delako.  Bozketa hilabetez egonen da zabalik, irailaren 22tik urriaren 21era; abenduan jakinaraziko da irabazlearen izena. Botorik gehien jasotzen dituen ekitaldiaren antolatzaileari oroigarri bat emanen zaio.
