In fiecare an AEGEE Cluj-Napoca organizeaza Ziua Europeana a Limbilor Straine, un eveniment menit sa sarbatoreasca diversitatea lingvistica din Europa si din intreaga lume. Ziua Europeană a Limbilor Străine se sărbătoreşte din 2001 când a implicat milioane de persoane din 45 de ţări în diverse activităţi pentru a celebra diversitatea lingvistică. Ideea a venit în urma proiectului anual din 2001, Anul European al Limbilor Străine, organizat de Consiliul Europei.
The European Day of Languages is celebrated annually since 2001, when it involved millions of people from 45 countries worldwide. The idea of this project originates with the European Council, which declared 2001 the European Year of Languages.
Bring your friends to play!

About European Day of languages

ABOUT THE EUROPEAN DAY OF LANGUAGES
the more languages you know, the more of a person you are
The European Day of Languages was first celebrated in 2001 in the frame of the European Year of Languages, initiated by the European Commission and the Council of Europe. Since then, AEGEE has organised language-related activities all over Europe every year. The main focus of our activities is on the European Day of Languages celebrated in autumn. Besides that, we have been working on some sub-projects like organising language courses at the beginning of each statutory meeting of AEGEE, the creation of a travel dictionary, promotion of language tandems and administrating a database (Language Partners), Teachers Exchange Project (database). Aims
1. To raise the awareness of the richness of linguistic diversity within Europe
2. To publicise the advantages of skills in a range of languages, in personal development, in intercultural understanding, in European citizenship and in enhancing the economic potential of individuals, enterprises and society
3. To encourage lifelong learning of languages and related skills
4. To collect and disseminate information about the teaching and learning of languages, and about skills, methods and tools which assist it and/or facilitate communication between users of different languages
Types of event/activities
During the European Day of Languages itself, there will be events all over Europe celebrated by the locals of AEGEE. The activities on the day can include e.g. language courses, conferences, language fairs on streets, cooperation with existing resource centres, language tandems, presentations, exhibitions or a cultural programme.
Target group
There is no specific target group. As students, we will be able to address younger people like other students or pupils more easily, but this should not hinder the participation of people belonging to other groups of society. Especially for those who have been out of formal education for a longer time, it is particularly important to keep studying languages in order to prepare for vocational challenges or to enhance their quality of life.
Expected results
We expect to fulfil the aims mentioned above by motivating as many locals as possible to take part in the European Day of Languages and by providing them with a good network of cooperation and support in the implementation of their events.
