Two new Regional Dossiers: Slovene in Austria and Lithuanian in Poland

As many as two new Regional Dossiers have been published by our Mercator European Research Centre on Multilingualism and Language Learning! These are the third and fully updated edition of the dossier 'The Slovene language in education in Austria', and the second and fully updated edition of the dossier 'The Lithuanian language in education in Poland'.

The Regional Dossiers focus on the education system in European regions that have an autochthonous lesser-used language, and on how the lesser-used language is embedded in this system. The Regional Dossiers are written according to a fixed structure so that they can be used for comparative research. All Regional Dossiers, both new editions and older editions, are available for free download from the Mercator website (Regional Dossier section).
