Thrilled to announce that the website of our new Heritage Language Consortium is now online.
The Heritage Language Consortium, is a strategic partnership between Lancaster University, the University of Lisbon, the University of Minho, NOVA University Lisbon, the University of Porto, Tübingen University, and Camões: Instituto da Cooperação e da Língua, Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Very honored to serve as Director of this important initiative, and very grateful to colleagues in Braga, Lancaster, Lisbon, Porto and Tuebingen for their help in getting this off the ground.

The launch is set for December 19, when our Memorandum of Understanding is signed during an official cerimony in Lisbon. On the day before, the University of Lisbon (my alma mater…) will organize a symposium to celebrate the occasion (click here for program). Thanks to Ana Lúcia Santos and CLUL for hosting us.
