Barcelona / Linguamón

Posted on by José Simián in Personal, Press

DURING THE LAST DAYS OF APRIL, I visited Barcelona invited by Fundación Linguamón, an organization of the Generalitat de Catalunya devoted to the promotion of multilingualism. There I learned of their House of Languages project, and produced packages on languages and immigration for NY1 Noticias.
