document | Education and Neapolitan Mother Language : Problems and Opportunities

The 24th edition of International Mother Language Day will focus on the theme ‘multilingual education - a necessity to transform education’.

Multilingual education based on mother-tongue facilitates access to and inclusion in learning for population groups that speak non-dominant languages, languages of minority groups and indigenous languages.
In this document we deal about problems and opportunities of a Neapolitan language education in Italy. We wish to contribute to the IMD 2023 reporting the work of the Accademia Napoletana for Neapolitan children in cooperation with academicians from all over the world.

Massimiliano Verde, president of the Accademia Napoletana to Neapolitan language teaching and preserving.
