The Committee on Culture and Education\nadopted the own-initiative report by Jill EVANS on language\nequality in the digital age. The report noted that multilingualism\npresents one of the greatest assets of cultural diversity in Europe\nand, at the same time, one of the most significant challenges for\nthe creation of a truly integrated EU, with 24 official languages\nand more than 60 regional and minority languages in addition to\nmigrant languages and sign languages.
\nCurrent\nobstacles to achieving language equality in the digital age in\nEurope: noting\nthat the EU has a duty to uphold linguistic diversity in Europe,\nMembers regretted the fact that, owing to a lack of adequate\npolicies in Europe, there is currently a widening technology\ngap between well-resourced languages and less-resourced\nlanguages, and that more than 20 European languages are in danger\nof digital language extinction. They pointed to the increasing\ndigitalisation of European society, which is leading to disparities\nin access to information, particularly for the low-skilled, the\nelderly, people on low incomes and people from disadvantaged\nbackgrounds. The committee also noted that:
\nImproving\nthe institutional framework for language technology policies at EU\nlevel: the\nreport called on the Council to draft a recommendation on the\nprotection and promotion of cultural and linguistic diversity\nin the Union, including in the sphere of language technologies. In\naddition, Members recommended that the Commission should allocate\nthe area of multilingualism and language technology to\nthe portfolio of a Commissioner, who should be tasked with\npromoting linguistic diversity and equality at EU level.
\nThe\nCommission was called upon to:
\nRecommendations\nfor EU research policies: Members asked the Commission to establish a\nlarge-scale, long-term coordinated funding programme for\nresearch, development and innovation in the field of language\ntechnologies. This should be done with the participation of\nresearch centres, academia, and enterprises (particularly SMEs and\nstart-ups).
\nFurthermore,\nthe Commission was asked to set up an HLT financing\nplatform, drawing on the implementation of the 7th Framework\nProgramme for Research and Technological Development, Horizon 2020\nand the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF).
\nEducation\npolicies to improve the future of language technologies in\nEurope:\nstressing that European education policies should be aimed at\nretaining talent in Europe, Members recommended the provision of\nguidelines for the implementation of cohesive joint action\nat European level, raising awareness among students of the career\nopportunities in the language technology industry, including the\nlanguage-centric artificial intelligence industry. They also\npointed to the need to:
\nBenefits\nfor both private companies and public bodies: Members highlighted the\nimportance of investment instruments and accelerator programmes\nthat aim to increase the use of language technologies in the\ncultural and creative sector. They also wanted European\nSMEs to be able to easily access and use language technologies\nin order to grow their businesses online by accessing new\nmarkets.
\nLastly,\nthey called on administrations at all levels to improve access to\nonline services and information in different languages, especially\nfor services in cross-border regions and culture-related\nissues.
