RCI London Celebrates the European Day of Languages

Join us for a vibrant celebration of European languages! Experience the diversity of cultures through interactive sessions and much more. EUNIC London and the EU delegation to the UK invite students, junior ambassadors from the European Parliament Ambassador Schools Programme, linguists and language enthusiasts to participate in interactive sessions highlighting the richness of European cultures and languages. From 12:00 to 17:00, stalls hosted by EU member state embassies, cultural institutes, and diaspora schools will offer learning materials and insights into various languages and cultures. Michael Vidon, a writer, performer and certified spoken word educator specialising in multilingual creativity, will lead engaging conversations and activities throughout the day.

The Romanian stand, organised by the Romanian Cultural Institute and the Romanian Embassy in London will feature language workshop programmes led by Romanian language teacher Alice Buciuta. Alice is one of the teachers involved in the Romanian Language Institute's programme entitled Romanian Language, Culture and Civilization Course in the UK. The public will also be able to "taste Romania" through delicacies offered by chef Marlene Botezatu. We will provide dynamic presentation materials that will incite interest in learning our language.

This event aims to promote diverse and high-quality opportunities for learning European languages across the UK. These events will raise awareness about the benefits of lifelong language learning, emphasising its importance for career development, employability, and mobility. Additionally, they will highlight how multilingualism contributes to the competitiveness of the European economy and enriches cultural heritage, linguistic diversity, and intercultural dialogue.
