Snapshots from the Borders
Sprachenfest Graz 2021 - Part 2
Sendetermin 01.12.2021 14:00 bis 15:00Celebrating the rich cultures of languages in Europe and beyond. Today we present our visit at the Sprachenfest 2021 which took place at the 24th of September in Graz.
We talked to organisations involved in language education, promoting culture, competences and political empowerment of refugees, migrants or ex-pads.
The Sprachenfest is organised by the Sprachennetzwerk Graz and we have been invited to highlight the importance of living cultures and languages. This year the 20th anniversary of the European Day of Languages was celebrated.
But now let’s jump into the festival. Peninah and Saif took the microphones and went through the location talking to the different organisations.
On part two we talk to the Department of Integration, City of Graz; City Library of Graz; Verein Sozialprofil with the Project "Panthersie für Europa", Società Dante Alighieri, Institut Culturel Franco-Autrichien; Europe Direct Styria and European Centre for Modern Languages of the Council of Europe

Information zur Sendereihe
We are people who are commonly called migrants and asylum seekers. We want to cross borders set by definitions and get in dialogue with communities, politics, the economy, social and cultural life.
The project informs citizens that migration is a complex, multidimensional phenomenon and a political issue that requires efforts and concrete actions by people and organisations/networks at all levels of society.
