As a branch of the Bilingualism Matters, the Faculty of English at the Adam Mickiewicz University will be obliged to disseminate knowledge on bi- and multilingualism as well as multiculturalism, and conduct dialogue - in academic circles and among local communities - on challenges posed by these phenomena in the 21st century.
The Bilingualism Matters cooperates with parents, teachers, health professionals, policy makers and employers.
Research has shown that bilingualism is beneficial for children's development and their future. Children exposed to different languages become more aware of different cultures, other people and other points of view. More recent research also suggests that learning another language may have benefits in later life, delaying the onset of dementia symptoms and slowing cognitive aging. These benefits seem to exist even when people learn a second language later in life.
