Tutela del Multilinguismo: diritti, formazione culturale, media e nuove tecnologie
Multilingualism preservation: rights, cultural education, media, new technologies.
The theme of the conference conceived by dr.
Massimiliano Verde, President of the Neapolitan Academy
and organized in collaboration with the Council of the
Naples Bar Association as well as the “Alfredo De
Marsico” Library of Castel Capuano, is
multilingualism as a principle and value protected by
international law. On the occasion of the 2022
International day of the Mother lamguage we introduce
the case of the Neapolitan language as a historical and
cultural heritage of the Neapolitan community in Italy
and abroad, also in relation to training, media and new
technologies. In this sense, it will be considered the
multidisciplinary work of the Neapolitan Academy, for
the protection of the Neapolitan language and culture,
as well as for the promotion of Neapolitan speakers,
primarily women and children, as well as social and
cultural experiences developed by teachers and
activists.
The seminar will highlight, also pursuant to the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UN Convention
on the Rights of the Child and the Convention for the
Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women
(CEDAW), about the actual situation of the Neapolitan, a
language codified by UNESCO as vulnerable and
transmitted as a mother tongue.
The conference enjoys the moral patronage of the
Consulate of the Republic of Nicaragua, competent for
the Campania Region.
