Eighty language planners, politicians, university researchers and representatives of associations from regions all over Europe gathered in Donostia/San Sebastian (Spain) on 17-18 October 2019 to participate in the second edition of the NPLD-Coppieters Campus. The aim of the two-day meeting was to learn from each other’s best practices in the field of language planning to “activate the social use of minority languages” in different spheres of life.

The representatives of the Basque Country focused their presentations on the Euskaraldia project. Two projects to promote the Catalan language among large companies, (Emmarca’t) and among small businesses led by newcomers (Ofercat), were presented by the Government of Catalonia. Finally, the transmission of Welsh language within families was presented as the focus of the Welsh Language Board project. This report is a summary of the good practices presented during the Campus.
