Annual European Day of Languages

Annual European Day of Languages

A European Languages Day will be held annually on 26 September, the Council of Europe committee of ministers has decided. It took the decision because feedback from the 45 countries which took part in last year's European Year of Languages campaign was so positive. The committee hopes that the European Commission will join the Council of Europe in promoting the annual languages day, and set aside money for this. Each year, the campaign could be given a different theme.
