The Global Languages Initiative

The Global Languages Initiative is a tri-Campus collaborative effort of over 17 Departments, Programs, Colleges, Centres, and Institutes to grow and connect language instruction at the University of Toronto. It is committed to promoting intercultural competence and global fluency, supporting the revitalization of lesser-taught and Indigenous languages, and engaging local and global communities.


Global Language Initiative members gathered for their first symposium in January.
