Ever since the Council of Europe was founded in 1949 it has sought not only to bring about the unity of Europe without geographical or social dividing lines, but also to further mutual understanding between all European citizens.
Crossing the language barrier is a fundamental precondition for peaceful co-existence. The Graz Centre promotes a multilingual and multicultural Europe and since 1995 it has been focusing its efforts on improving language teaching in Europe by offering further training for multipliers, and on supporting member states in reforming their language teaching policies.
The Centre played an important role in the Council of Europe’s key initiatives in the field of languages: the European Year of Languages (2001) and the European Day of Languages, celebrated on 26 September every year.
