    Other activities

    As of early 2016 the ECSPM is an independent non-governmental, non-profit association, registered according to Danish Law (Registration No. CVR 37116866), to carry on the work of the ‘Platform’ on Multilingualism, launched by the Commission, supported by the DG EAC, in 2009, and re-launched in 2012, and mandated to work toward the development of: (a) coherent plans to raise awareness regarding the value of European linguistic diversity (b) strategies allowing Europeans to learn at least two languages plus L1 starting from an early age, and (c) proposals facilitating the mainstreaming of multilingualism in relevant EU programmes and policies.

    The ECSPM continues to carry out research and promote actions which will ensure that all Europeans learn two languages in addition to the official language of the country in which they live, study and work, and to maintain Europe’s rich linguistic and cultural diversity which is crucial for the future of Europe. Moreover, it continues to support the right of all students in European schools to acquire literacy and to use their home languages in society and in their classrooms.

    ECSPM also operates for the promotion of research into multilingualism, as well as for the endorsement and development of language policies for multilingualism in all aspects of social life by way of focusing on people, and on their ability to use a variety of semiotic resources to access education, social affairs and culture, to participate as active citizens, to benefit from better communication and wider employment opportunities.
