We celebrate UNESCO's International Mother Tongue Day with a full day of language-related activities to help encourage languages and linguistics study in schools, colleges and universities. We'll be holding Language Taster sessions, based on our Lingo magazine for younger students, and workshops on Subtitling and Field Linguistics for an older audience.
