Barcelona Centre for Linguistic Normalisation

Best practice Educating young people

Distribution of the contents of the Citizens’ Charter in “Easy Reading” formats and in different languages. The Barcelona Centre for Linguistic Normalization (CLN) welcomes over 17,000 students from 127 different countries. The classes are thus an active example of diversity and the respect of difference. It is for this reason that the CNL has adopted intercultural dialogue as one of the strategic values of its educational project, in which new arrivals are acquainted with the characteristic traits of Catalan culture, not in terms of a single, homogeneous model but rather from the position of exchange, plurality, interaction and the miscegenation and hybridisation of culture.

Aims to continue promoting the knowledge of Catalan in collaboration with the Consorci de Normalització Lingüística (Language Normalisation Consortium) and facilitating the learning of Spanish in collaboration with associations in the city. Adapt the knowledge of the languages for professional sectors so that, at the same time as people are learning the language, they are adding to their professional qualifications.
