Join EDL’s international “happy birthday” video

Happy 20th birthday, #EuropeanDayofLanguages!

Since 2002, it has been the goal of the European Day of Languages (26th September) to promote and celebrate linguistic diversity in Europe and beyond.

We would like to encourage Queen’s students and staff members to participate in international happy birthday video by coming down to our Language Centre stand at the foyer area in the McClay Library, between 12 and 2pm today (Monday 27th September) to take a short video saying ‘Happy Birthday’ and sharing their own language skills.

We can also help you to learn about all of the opportunities available to you to support your language skills development with the Language Centre.

Celebrating Cultural Diversity at Queen’s Survey

Calling all staff and students at Queen’s –

At Queen’s we are committed to promoting cultural diversity, equality and inclusion among our communities. The BAME&I Network and The Language Centre invite you to join us to set up a planner of events, including invited talks and culture/language-associated festivals and days that we can celebrate in a range of ways (e.g. culture talks, posters, taster sessions/workshops, performances) at Queen’s and elsewhere.

We value the richness of languages and cultures brought in by staff and students to Queen’s and would welcome BAME&I members, in particular, to share your knowledge, experience, and enthusiasm of your linguistic and cultural events so that we can build up a repertoire and make plans for joint celebrations in the future.
