Multilingual Resources #2

The Research Unit for Multilingualism and Cross Cultural Communication (RUMACCC) at the University of Melbourne is a great resource for promoting multilingualism.

The Languages and Multicultural Education Resource Centre is a specialist resource centre supporting school curriculum development and programes in LOTE, ESL, Koorie and Aboriginal languages, Multicultural, antiracism, and human rights education, Civics and citzenship, and Studies of Asia.

UNESCO's webpage on cultural and linguistic diversity in education gives an overview of language policies, mother tongue maintenance and support, and their position on the multilingual internet. It's an interesting source of information.

As I continue to explore the use of podcasting to maintain and foster mother tongue development, I will add more resources and information to my blog.
