Catalan Scientific Committee

To compile and organise the Catalan experience, we created the Linguamón Best Practices in Multilingualism Catalan Scientific Committee.

Committee members are professionals working with the Catalan language or on its normalisation. They may represent the predominantly Catalan-speaking universities, or organisations and institutions that run activities to promote and disseminate Catalan, or institutions with responsibility for the Catalan language: Institut d’Estudis Catalans (Institute of Catalan Studies), Consorci per a la Normalització Lingüística (Consortium for Language Normalisation), Servei de Politica Lingüística del Govern d’Andorra (Language Policy Service of the Andorran Government) and Secretaria de Politica Lingüística de la Generalitat de Catalunya (Language Policy Department, Catalan Regional Government).
