Global Call to Action for Heritage Language Education
We are asking for your support in raising awareness for Heritage Language Education.
A year ago, on International Mother Language Day 2024, the Heritage Language Education Network launched a Global Call to Action to strengthen and support heritage language education and culture education of multilingual children. The response to this Call to Action has been supported by many domestic and international stakeholders, including the GLSC. In time for International Mother Language Day 2025, the Heritage Language Education Network has announced the easy-to-use list of recommendations accompanying the Global Call to Action in other languages including German.
Founded in 1978, the German Language School Conference (GLSC) is the only national organization dedicated to the needs of community-based German language schools in the United States. Our mission is to link member schools with a central organization for information and support. We assist in the establishment of new language schools and provide a forum for sharing experiences and advice.
The GLSC serves as a resource to language schools for best practices, administrative information and policies to further our common goals of maintaining and fostering the language and culture of German speaking countries in the US. We represent the interests of our member schools to German and US government agencies, professional organizations and other stakeholders.
