Developing plurilingual competence in Europe
This document discusses the concepts of multilingualism and plurilingualism. It defines multilingualism as knowing multiple languages, while plurilingualism emphasizes how individuals integrate languages into a single linguistic repertoire rather than keeping them separate. The document outlines Council of Europe policies that aim to promote plurilingualism through language education reforms across Europe. It analyzes data showing most Europeans only know one foreign language and identifies challenges in developing citizens' plurilingual competence. Overall, the document argues plurilingualism is important for social cohesion, mobility, and democratic participation in increasingly multilingual European societies.

This document discusses linguistic rights for indigenous populations and their importance for rural development and entrepreneurship. It argues that indigenous peoples have been denied access to education, governance, and economic opportunities because official languages have been imposed on them without their consent. Recognizing linguistic rights and providing education in indigenous languages can help harness talents, skills, and knowledge in rural communities to support national growth. The document calls for capacity building for educators to teach adult literacy and entrepreneurial skills in indigenous Nigerian languages, to better utilize the untapped potential in rural areas and promote sustainable development.
#WCIP2014 IASG - thematic paper traditional knowledge rev1
Indigenous peoples' traditional knowledge plays an important role in biodiversity conservation and sustainable development. There is growing recognition of the links between traditional knowledge, sustainable use of biological resources, and addressing issues like climate change and biodiversity loss. However, more work is still needed to strengthen the protection of traditional knowledge and ensure the effective participation of indigenous peoples in relevant policy processes. International frameworks and scientific assessments have made progress in incorporating traditional knowledge, but continued efforts are needed to support transmission of knowledge between generations and its contributions to global challenges.
