EVENT
Once again this year, the Council of the Network of Official Languages Champions is partnering with the Linguistic Duality Network, which is made up of Canadian Parents for French, French for the Future and the Canadian Foundation for Cross-Cultural Dialogue, to organize this event so that it can be celebrated beyond the public service throughout Canadian society.
In collaboration with the Canada School of Public Service, a virtual event on the theme "Our languages, a window on the world" will be presented on September 14, from 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Time).
This year's event explores how languages open a window to different realities and provide opportunities, enabling us to discover and acquire new knowledge. Participants will discover little-known Canadian realities, in a spirit of sharing and respect aimed at developing a sense of belonging and commitment. Cultural and musical performances by Canadian artists will be included as part of this event.
Information
Date and time: September 14, 2023, 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. (ET)
Registration: Canada School of Public Service
The event is open to the public. For technical support or help registering for this event, please email: learningevents-evenementsdapprentissage@csps-efpc.gc.ca.
