European Day of Languages
Celebrated every year on 26 September, the European Day of Languages (EDL) is a means of promoting awareness among the general public of the importance of language learning and protecting the linguistic heritage.
The European Day of Languages was first celebrated in 2001 during the European Year of Languages.
Every year, millions of people in the Council's member states and elsewhere organize or take part in activities to promote linguistic diversity and the ability to speak other languages.

There are 24 official languages in Europe (EU) but there are actually more than 200 languages spoken on the continent.
EDL is an opportunity to celebrate all of Europe's languages, including those that are less widely spoken and the languages of migrants.
The European Centre for Modern Languages (ECML) has set up a website with multiple resources available in 37 languages: edl.ecml.at.
