PhD Student at University of Westminster and Founder of Casa do Livro- community library of Portuguese language.
I am delighted to collaborate with the London: City of Languages initiative. This represents a tangible step towards advocacy, raising visibility, and strengthening recognition of heritage and community languages across this wonderfully diverse city. I have worked with supplementary schools for 12 years,
This initiative offers the opportunity to position these schools as essential educational and cultural institutions. Through collective networks, shared expertise, and stronger policy engagement, London’s rich ecosystem of supplementary schools stands to gain with partnerships and structural support, enabling them to thrive and amplify the impact of their work across communities.
