Imagining the Future of Multilingualism
Education and Society at a Turning Point
Since 2008, the Conseil Européen pour les Langues / European Language Council (CEL/ELC) has hosted a Forum every two years. These Fora seek to bring together representatives of higher education institutions, of European institutions and organisations, such as, for example, the European Commission, the European Parliament, and the Council of Europe, and of European associations like the European University Association (EUA) as well as scholars with a special interest in European integration, policy development, and multilingualism. At the centre of 2020 discussions will be the role that Higher Education can and should play in the promotion and development of multilingualism as a key aspect of European cooperation – related to facets such as language policy, internationalisation, language and knowledge, education and mobility, to mention just a few. In this context, participants will also reflect on the future role of the CEL/ELC by identifying and analysing new challenges that have arisen in our changing world.

Contributions of articles for electronic journal Verbum et Lingua
The electronic magazine Verbum et Lingua: Didáctica, lengua y cultura will dedicate its 16th edition (July-December 2020) to the topic of Chican@s studies. Grosso modo, for Ornelas, Ramírez and Padilla (1975), the Chican@s studies have made a great effort to integrate four main constructs: race, class, culture and gender/sexuality. These constructs are present in the work of different artists who express their ideology in order to politicize and lead their community(ies) to change. According to Macias (2018), the Chican@s field of study seeks to make research holistic and multidisciplinary, as well as inclusive, comparative, grounded, up-to-date and critical. At the same time, it seeks to apply the results to social justice, education, as well as to the change of the global Chican@ communities.

Instances of power and cultural discourse
Intercultural exchange in the age of globalization, second edition
In the context of today’s social, political and economic changes, power is one of the governing principles of culture. Power comes in many shapes and sizes and it manifests itself under various forms: it can be tyrannical or a combination of forces (Foucault); it can be charismatic, traditional and rational (Weber) or the opposite – manipulative; it can also appear as a system of diluted forces that spring from the “social field” (Bourdieu); it can remain in the unconscious or it can manifest itself in the speech act. However it may appear, it has become clear that power shapes the course of the creation, interpretation and analysis of literary texts and other cultural products.

Foreign Language Teaching in Tertiary Education IV
Business and Foreign Languages
The economic crisis has led to high unemployment in Greece and in the European South in general and therefore many young people leave their country in order to work in businesses either in Europe or on other continents. This mobility however, if regarded as a factor that promotes the professional competitiveness of young people, enriching their knowledge and skills abroad and allowing them to transfer their interlingual and intercultural experience to other businesses or back to their country, leads us to the conclusion that the knowledge of one or more foreign languages is one of the pillars of young people’s creativity and adaptation in the workplace.

Appropriation and transmission of world languages and cultures
Beyond linguistic competence in a globalised world: action, interaction and intercultural mediation
Au croisement du linguistique et de l’éducatif, du social et du politique, le Séminaire doctoral international réunit chaque année des enseignants-chercheurs et de jeunes chercheurs concernés par l’appropriation et la transmission des langues et des cultures.

The Place of Ethics in the Teaching of Languages for Special Purposes
S’adressant à des étudiants spécialistes d’autres disciplines, les enseignants de langues du secteur LANSAD contribuent à la formation de futurs professionnels. Faire acquérir à leurs apprenants les clés de la langue-culture d’un milieu professionnel est l’une de leurs missions. L’éthique fait partie du savoir-être et des codes professionnels, elle implique l’individu comme l’entreprise. Cependant, des questions se posent, notamment : quelle place doit-elle occuper dans le contenu de l’enseignement des langues ? À quel moment faut-il l’introduire ? Avec quels outils et méthodes ? Des questions pratiques se posent : quel(s) moment(s) de la formation, quels outils et méthodes sont les plus favorables à la mise en place des apprentissages liés à l’éthique ? L’évaluation et la certification peuvent-elles prendre en compte la compétence éthique des apprenants – selon quels critères ? Quelles compétences doit posséder l’enseignant lui-même ? -

Teaching Arabic to Non Arabic Speakers : Diverse Experiences
L’idée du colloque est de confronter des expériences d’enseignement de la langue arabe aux non arabophones dans les établissements supérieurs aussi bien européens que ceux du monde arabe à travers deux axes : un axe historique et institutionnel de l’enseignement et des formations en arabe portant sur les voies lesquelles il s'est institionnalisé dans les différentes traditions d'enseignement des langues étrangères; un axe linguistique et didactique où l’on s’interrogera sur les choix pédagogiques qui sont faits dans les formations, à travers les différentes expériences. Les langues du colloque sont le français, l’anglais et l’arabe.
