I’m so excited to see the London City of Languages initiative taking shape. I’ve been interested in the multilingual nature of London ever since working on the LUCIDE project on urban languages.
In my work supporting schools, universities and language policy, we’re increasingly seeing how powerful grassroots initiatives are for engagement, motivation and bringing languages to life in schools and communities, so I think London City of Languages is happening at exactly the right time!
