Multilingualism
Commissioner Leonard Orban of the Education and Culture Directorate General has the promotion of multilingualism as his objective. He says "Promoting multilingualism in the different policies of the European Union, such as culture, education, communication and employment is at the centre of my objectives. I want to make a real contribution to the competitiveness of the European economy."
In this respect, the Commission published on 18 September a Communication to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions.
The Council of the European Union also recognises the importance of promoting multilingualism and recently published a Resolution to this effect.
