By: staff vals-asla
New publication

This  publication focuses on key developments in language education promoted  through the work of the European Centre for Modern Languages o:f the  Council of Europe (ECML). It serves three main functions. Firstly, it  summarises the ECML's contributions to fostering linguistic and cultural  diversity in European societies. Secondly, it contains the proceedings of  the ECML Conference, held in September 2007 at the University of Graz, to  communicate the results of this programme to the wider public. Thirdly, it  provides a preview of the projects which comprise the next programme of  the ECML (2008-2011): “Empowering language professionals: competences -  networks - impact - quality”. In this way the publication both provides an  overview of current issues and trends in European language teaching and  indicates perspectives for the future.
