LGMEF Pedagogical Day - From first languages to French - a specific plurilingualism

This event, part of the Langues et Grammaires du Monde dans l'Espace Francophone project, brings together linguists, language specialists, teachers and trainers working with allophones to discuss issues of linguistic diversity and plurilingualism.

This one-day event will feature speakers from a variety of backgrounds and regions. The partners who have accompanied us since the project's inception are Université Paris 8, Laboratoire SFL of CNRS, DGLFLF of the French Ministry of Culture, Inalco, an ESF project of the Créteil academy and Hachette - FLE.

LGMEF brings together academics, linguists and didacticians, language teachers and trainers in charge of facilities for allophone students and adults, to build tools and pass on information about the languages present in our territory. This day will be an opportunity to bring you up to date on the latest developments in this project and training. Once again this year, eight new language sheets will be proposed, in addition to the existing ones.
