The aim of the project is to further disseminate “Languages meet Sport” (L&S) projects and transfer results to Regional and Minority Languages (RML) by organising a Festival of RML through Sports. “L&S” was launched in 2009 to share European projects on language learning and sports. It was supported by the LLKA4 Program and produced a very successful Conference: over 200 delegates from all over Europe and 40 projects presented. In 2010 “Languages meet sport 2” proved to be self sustainable and was organised with the support of the Municipality of Trieste and Regione Friuli Venezia Giulia (FVG): besides the Conference, a “best practice in action” was organized in the main city square and 300 children from Italian and Slovenian schools met with children from Sarajevo (INTER Campus) and London (ARSENAL Double Club). The present project aims to valorise the results achieved to now and transfer them to new target users in the field of minority and regional languages. The Region FVG, which strongly supports the regional and minority Languages of the area will support the organisation of the L&S 2011 Festival where participants from different European communities will present best practices in learning RML through sports.
