> Dear friends,

> Do you want to join the European Day of Languages?
> Do you want to make something happen in your city and to be at the same
> time connected with antennae all over Europe?
> Do you want to take action in promoting language learning and raising
> awareness of the richness of linguistic diversity within Europe?
> Do you want to take the chance to be part of another great AEGEE
> project?
>
> If yes, you should quickly get together in your antenna and think about
> organising a one day seminar/ meeting on September 26th , 2001, the
> European Day of Languages. IMPORTANT: As AEGEE-Europe has to apply for
> funds for this project from the European Commission in February, we
> would
> need YOUR ANSWER UNTIL FEBRUARY 5TH !!!
>
> This could be a possible concept:
>
> In cities all over Europe locals gather at the same time (e.g. 1 PM
> (CET))
> people on market squares or other suitable locations for an event of
> app.
> 60 minutes. The focus will lie on languages, every language in Europe
> including languages which are not that widely spread in Europe. So might
> people in Helsinki (FIN) learn Basque, people in L'viv (UKR) learn
> Gaelic
> or people in Paris (F) learn Estonian. There is not a defined target
> group; everybody should be free to attend this event. A professional
> partner should be found, for example teacher(s) to play a decisive role
> as
> he/ they has/ have to be able to speak and entertain a big group of
> people. On the other hand he/ they should be native speaker(s) of the
> taught language and able to use modern interactive tools of language
> teaching. If financial means are available some
> highlight squares can even be connected via video-transmission to
> demonstrate the European dimension. A cheaper solution is to set up
> web-cameras and bring pictures from events all over Europe together on
> one
> webpage.
>
> Take into consideration what a great PR tool it could be to make
> yourself
> known to the local authorities, media, university or possible companies
> interested in funding your antenna. As it should reach as many people as
> possible, AEGEE does not have to organise this activity alone and you
> are
> encouraged to co-operate with the local authorities, universities or
> other
> NGOs.
