As part of the ARPIDE project's dissemination efforts, the project coordinator, Kenia Puig i Planella, and Miranda Karjagdi Çolak, project team member, presented a workshop at the Eaquals Online Conference (11-12 October 2024). The workshop focused on supporting quality practices in language education by promoting plurilingual and intercultural education for democratic culture, aligned with the Council of Europe's Recommendation CM/Rec(2022)1.
Participants explored how to strategically use ECML resources to enhance teaching and learning outcomes, aligning educational goals with competences for democratic culture. Through hands-on examples, the session demonstrated how teachers and institutions can adopt plurilingual and intercultural practices. Participants engaged with toolkits and real-life case studies, gaining insights into practical strategies for improving language teaching across Europe.
This workshop reinforced the ARPIDE project's commitment to fostering plurilingualism and intercultural understanding, contributing to sustainable educational improvement across diverse contexts.
