Language learning, multilingualism, translation and intercultural competence are foundational for equitable and inclusive schools and teacher education. Educators must adopt innovative teaching methods to cater to diverse learners, including minorities and disadvantaged students. Media literacy and technology play pivotal roles in navigating the digital landscape, while addressing global issues like sustainability and peace empowers learners to effect positive change. The conference aims to facilitate collaboration among researchers and practitioners, fostering dialogue on these critical topics to advance equitable and inclusive education worldwide. Through collaborative inquiry and knowledge exchange, participants will learn about research results and explore innovative approaches to education that promote social justice, democracy, equity, and belonging for all.
