National Languages Policy Workshop

Event organised under the aegis of the University of Cambridge Language Sciences Strategic Research Initiative, Cambridge Public Policy Strategic Research Initiative, and in partnership with Speak to the Future and UCML

The morning will consist of presentations by civil servants and advisers working in different departments in Whitehall and the devolved parliaments and assemblies who have language policy as part of their brief. We understand language policy broadly, covering the indigenous languages of the UK, community or heritage languages, as well as foreign language learning. We aim to map where the responsibility for language policy sits and to promote dialogue between the different departments. We are delighted that Baroness Coussins, Co-Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Modern Languages, has agreed to chair the event.

Registration for this event has now closed.
