Linguistic Security Committee of BC

Linguistic Security Committee

The first workshops offered by the committee were developed by the founding members in collaboration with Dr Suzanne Robillard. Since then, the workshop’s content has continued to evolve in response to the community’s needs, in consultation with experts in the field and with committee members.

The workshops address the needs and realities of youth growing up in French language minority communities. In order to reach the various communities that play a key role in both identity formation and the development of a sense of linguistic legitimacy, these workshops are offered to youth, student teachers, parents and various community members. In addition, to promote accessibility and help spread their message to a wider audience, the committee develops supplementary awareness-raising resources.
