SHARE

International Mother Language Day 2023 celebrated today marks great relevance now, as we find ourselves in a world that is becoming increasingly diverse, connected and interdependent. With people from different backgrounds and cultures coming together, language has become more important than ever.

This is why the International Mother Language Day this year is more relevant than ever before. Beyond the celebration of multilingualism and cultural diversity, this year’s theme ‘multilingual education – a necessity to transform education’, aims to explore the potential of using mother tongue languages in education to promote access and inclusion in learning for population groups that speak non-dominant languages.

So, let’s explore the untold importance of International Mother Language Day 2023 and why it matters to us all.

The Importance of Multilingualism

Multilingualism refers to the ability to speak and understand multiple languages. This ability is not only important for communication and personal growth, but also for promoting social cohesion and cultural diversity. As we continue to interact with people from different parts of the world, multilingualism helps us to break down barriers and create a sense of unity and understanding. In fact, studies have shown that people who are bilingual or multilingual are more empathetic, open-minded, and better at problem-solving.

International Mother Language Day 2023: The Importance of Mother Tongue Education

Mother tongue education is the practice of using a child’s first language as a medium of instruction in early education. This is an important tool for promoting equity and social justice, particularly for populations that speak non-dominant languages. By using mother tongue languages in education, we can promote access and inclusion in learning, and create a more level playing field for all students. This is particularly important in situations where children speak a different language at home than the language used in schools.

Preserving Endangered Languages

Endangered languages are languages that are at risk of disappearing due to the declining number of speakers. This is a significant issue that threatens to erode linguistic and cultural diversity. By promoting the use of endangered languages and preserving them through education, we can create a more inclusive and diverse world. Additionally, the loss of a language can result in the loss of traditional knowledge, cultural practices, and unique ways of seeing the world.

Challenges and Opportunities of Multilingual Education

While multilingual education has numerous benefits, it also presents several challenges. One of the biggest challenges is the lack of resources and funding for implementing multilingual education programs. Additionally, there is a need for a standardized approach to multilingual education that ensures quality education and meets the needs of students from diverse backgrounds. However, despite these challenges, there are numerous opportunities to use multilingual education to promote equity, social justice, and inclusive education.

Famous Quotes on Multilingualism and Mother Tongue Education

There have been several prominent figures throughout history who have championed the cause of multilingualism and mother tongue education. Their ideas continue to be relevant and inspiring today. Here are some of the most notable quotes:

“Language is not only a means of communication, but also a means of understanding the world.” – Franz Boas

“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.” – Nelson Mandela

“Language is the roadmap of a culture. It tells you where its people come from and where they are going.” – Rita Mae Brown
