List of national contact persons

The role of national contact points

In order to coordinate the activities organised at national level, the Council of Europe asks the participating countries to appoint national entities to act as intermediaries for the European Day of Languages. The updated full list can be found here.

The function of the contact person is to support in the organization organizations, schools, associations (etc.) circulating:

- the information communicated by the Council of Europe (for example, the Council press release and the updates to the website which the national contact persons are invited to translate into their national/local language);

- promotional material: posters, stickers, gadgets (etc.) provided annually by the Council of Europe in significant quantities for event organisers.

The national contact person is also encouraged to promote the Day at national/ regional level, for example through the press, by making the website of the Day known. The same reports to the Council of Europe the events organized to celebrate the Day within the country.

Some national referents have set up a national website for the Day taking into account the large number of events organized in their country.

The national contact points for the European Day of Languages work on a voluntary basis and the Council of Europe is grateful for their important contribution.

Countries currently without national referents...

As illustrated on the map, some Member States do not currently have a national contact point.

At best, the contact point may be an individual or structure already in contact with the Council of Europe. However, this is not essential.

All structures (centres/ associations/ administrative units, etc.) that are willing to engage as a national contact point between their countries and the Council of Europe are invited to contact the national authorities or the Council of Europe

Please note that all National Relays fulfill this role on a purely voluntary basis and have a very limited amount of materials available for distribution. Where possible, we make promotional materials (such as the posters, stickers and logo) available in high-resolution formats which are suitable for printing (see the Downloads page).

We would ask that you only contact the National Relay within your country and not those in the other parts of the UK. Even if your National Relay no longer has materials, the other Relays will not be able to respond to requests from other parts of the UK. Many thanks for your understanding.

For EDL resources to download please see the Downloads page or to purchase T-shirts, visit the following page :
