    Funder Contribution: 228,585 EUR

    Taking into account the growing number of migrants in Europe, where the majority struggle with limited financial resources, and also the higher number of dropouts in the formal language courses, this project aims to improve and facilitate their access to second language studies, by providing them the opportunity to participate in Language Voices language cafés, which are based on voluntariness and informal meeting but are also systematically organised. As such, at the same time that they are gaining access to social, informal, environments of the resident country, they will be integrating a community of learners and tutors, which is often a key success factor in establishing a quality life in a new country. Adding to this experience, and order to provide a rich, multicultural and contemporary experience this project will provide: 1) a preparatory training, handbook and teaching materials similar to the equivalent of a “free franchise handbook” so that the multilingual Language Voices concept can easily and successfully be replicated with minimum effort throughout the EU or anywhere else in the world; 2) A comprehensive material bank with language learning and cultural material and resources and a possibility for online communication and language exchange; 3) A mobile application to find language exchange events available in the partner countries; 6) A Language Voices association registered in Finland that will maintain the website and the activities after the project is finished. Hence, this project aims to have a three-fold objective: 1) to mitigate some initial barriers, viz. opportunity, access and cost, hindering many with language study needs or desires to begin or continue language studies; 2) to facilitate the proliferation of easily accessible, non-committal, low cost but well structured language training opportunities and material; 3) provide all-encompassing multicultural, multilingual environment and meeting places in cooperation with local small businesses.
